  It’s been 2 years since I took my first lesson with Mike Devlin. Have paddled with Mike on many occasions since then and must say it is always a fun... read more day when Mike is on the water. I’ve watched him with many new students and am always impressed with how patient he is with those who are just beginning. Even if you have been paddling for years, you will still learn something new from him.

His tours are unique because they are private and the amount of time you spend on your tour is really up to you. When you book a tour with Mike it’s just your group. You are not mixed in with other groups who may want to go longer or shorter than you do. So no money is wasted and the experience is much more relaxed and enjoyable. I believe Mikes tour is the best value in the Naples area and you are touring with a knowledgeable experienced guide who has been kayaking for over 20 years! He must be doing a lot right!!!!

Mike is a great teacher and lets you decide what you want to do and see.
