PRICES & POLICIES
All Trips and Rentals are by reservation, however we'll be happy to fit you in if we can should you decide to
drop by on the spur of the moment. We recommend that you call first to avoid disappointment. A waiver
form is required by our insurance carrier. There is a separate form for minor children which must be signed
by a parent or legal guardian. You will be asked to fill it our before departure or you can download it here.
WAIVERS
In order to keep our Trips and Rentals as high quality as possible, we have limited our fleet in size. We have no
desire to become a resort rental fleet. This allows us to emphasize quality over quantity and still provide our
services at competitive rates. Most of our boats are single place kayaks. There are a limited number of tandem
kayaks available, however, the guide is always in his/her own single boat. This is done for safety reasons. The guide
needs to be free to assist in rescue situations.
Public & Private Tours are available. A public tour is one where you may be paired with other paddlers up to a
maximum of 10 paddlers. A private tour is limited to those in your party only. A flat fee group discount of $400
plus tax is available for private parties of 7 -10. There is a 2 person minimum charge for any tour.
Children are welcome but expected to be well behaved and under control at all times. There is no age limit and
children under 3 are free when riding in a double kayak with an adult parent or guardian. Only private tours are
available to parties with children age 10 and under.

All our trips are loop or circle routes meaning, they are not float trips downriver. We are located in a coastal area
affected by the tides so while sometimes the water flows out, it also flows in. Currents are not strong so that means
you have to paddle to get where you're going. The same thing applies to rental trips. They are all on the Crystal
River and you have to paddle, you cannot just float down and shuttle back.

Single Kayaks $20/hr $35/half day $50/all day
Tandem Kayaks $30/hr $45 half day $65 all day
A Note on Prices
Our kayaks rentals are not the cheapest rates available locally. If budget is your primary consideration, we
probably are not your best option. We do however, offer the best quality kayaks on the bay. These are all
what we would call "A" brand kayaks and if performance, stability, and ease of paddling is what floats
your boat, come see us first. Our rental boats average $1000 or more at retail prices. We are not a cut rate
resort rental operation and the quality of our kayaks and personal service reflect that fact.
Ask about Multiday Rentals. Off site deliveries are available for an extra charge and by prior arrangement.
We are open Wednesday through Sunday, but arrangements can be made for other times.
We open at 9 am, but we can sometimes make arrangements for early pick ups. Boats must be returned no later
than 5:00 pm.
Late fees will be applied for equipment returned after this time.
Damage fees will be assessed for damaged or lost equipment.
All rental prices include top quality boats, light weight paddles, & life jackets. Life jackets must be worn at all
times. Price subject to 6% Fla sale tax.
