So much fun! Todd had tons of interesting history and information on the man grooves and wildlife. Will definitely be getting ahold of him next time we are in Florida!

We had an awesome kayak through the mangroves and the bay at Emerson Point Preserve. Our tour guide Todd was a lot of fun and kept our group safe and laughing all morning.
