Cocoa Beach Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

For a first time experience it was awesome. Tyler our guide was excellent with instructions, knowledge of the area, and Dolphin and Manatee. Will highly recommend Three Brothers in the future.

It was exciting to see the bioluminescent water, comb jelly fish, and mullet fish tracing streams of light through the water. We were lucky enough to have a few fish jump into our kayaks. Amazing!

Went with Tyler (Guide) he was very patient and knowledgeable! He navigated us to a ton of dolphins and manatees. Would highly recommend going, and request Tyler!

It was a rainy day and cloudy so seeing a sunset was no guarantee. But we saw some beautiful colors that night. Joe and Dakota are wonderful guides. They are funny, knowledgeable and just great people. They point out everything that there is to see. Highly recommend!

Joe and Dakota are an awesome team. He is the dolphin finder and she just knows things. They are fun, funny and great tour guides. We saw dolphins, birds, manatees and beautiful homes on our tour. We stopped to see the dolphins in their natural habitat. All in all a great tour. Highly recommend!

Cocoa Kayaking did everything right from beginning to end. From booking to the tour itself, they were first class. I especially want to thank James, our guide. He made the tour fun and enjoyable from start to finish and he even took pictures of me and my wife while on the tour, which he emailed to us immediately after the tour. Great excursion 10/10.

Found this on Cool Destinations. Reviews convinced me to book. This was after 8 pm the day before the tour. Within minutes, I received a call and text from a company employee. After talking with her, I knew immediately this would be good. She was helpful and courteous, and answered all questions clearly.We met James our guide and he got us set up. The equipment was in good shape, and he gave us a brief rundown of the tour before leaving. While on the water, he provided clear direction and interesting facts about the area, but he didn't talk so much as to make you feel you're on a bus tour. We were able to take in the scenery and peaceful atmosphere.We saw several dolphins and manatees, along with other wildlife, and the mangrove tunnels were really fascinating. James also took several photos of me and my wife during the time on the water and emailed them to us shortly after our visit ended, which we appreciated.Youn will be very satisfied with this tour, particularly if you have James as your guide. He's a real pro.

Fun experience. We saw lots of Dolphin, Manatee and Wildlife and lots of beautiful homes.

Very relaxed and informative afternoon with plenty of wildlife (Dolphins) to watch !

Fantastic day out, polite and knowledgeable staff. Saw manatees, osprey, dolphins and other birds. Must do trip.

This was such a fun and fascinating tour! Epic Paddle Adventures provided everything we needed for a fantastic 2-hour bioluminescence paddle. The clear kayaks really added to the experience, allowing us to see more of the glow in the water. The guides kept us organized, educated, and entertained, especially Joe, the tour leader, who was a treasure trove of knowledge about the flora and fauna of the Indian River Lagoon. Special shout-out to the plankton and the jellyfish for really shining!

This was a wonderful tour. Our guide and the naturalist were super knowledgeable and very considerate. We were offered drinks and even a plastic covering for each of us because it started to rain. We saw many dolphins, manatees, birds and fish. It was a great trip.

Rough start with some confusion with a change of meeting spots but glad we got to do it. Our guide Matt was very knowledgeable and patient, he took his time and showed us so many things like Jellies that glowed in our hand. We were inexperienced and over weight but it didn't make a difference, we quickly learned how to maneuver the kayak. The water was like stars in the sky under the clear bottom kayak. A manatee scared us coming up out of nowhere but that just added to the experience. You must try this. It was an experience of a lifetime!

Our bioluminescent tour was absolutely incredible, and so much of that was because of our guide, Jared!The bioluminescent plankton and comb jellies were breathtaking on their own, but having Jared with us made the experience SO much more immersive and special. He was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, kind, and genuinely went out of his way to make sure we had the best experience possible. He shared so many little tips and tricks that we never would have known if we had tried to experience it on our own.One of my favorite moments was when Jared gave his net to our daughter so she could catch the comb jellies herself. It absolutely made her night, and it was such a thoughtful gesture that she’ll remember.You can tell Jared truly loves what he does and loves sharing it with people. He didn’t just guide us through the experience—he made it an adventure we’ll be talking about for a long time.I would not hesitate for a second to book this experience. I would go again in a heartbeat, and if we do, we’ll absolutely be requesting Jared! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Our guide Jonathan did a great finding manatees and dolphins. He was knowledgeable of the area and continuously conversed with us about the surroundings and environment. Lots of fun kayaking through the mangrove tunnels. Also kept us safe by monitoring the weather online. Great exercise too.

Finished our Orlando Disney park week with massages and a beautiful Sunset Cruise.Everything was right, From the calm warm evening, to the river Dolphin and beautiful sunset. Magical!
