Join the Kayak Kings in Key West for a paddle through the serene beauty that surrounds the keys. The Kayak Kings offer both equipment/kayak rentals as well as guided tours through multiple habitats. The local kayaking trails are great for those who are new to kayaking as well as those who are experienced. Take an adventure on their Mangrove Mazes Tour that weaves through canopies of these aquatic trees. Observe the wildlife that call these trees their home including shrimp, turtles, crabs and majestic birds.  The mangrove and salt ponds tour lasts about 2-2.5 hours and costs abot $50 per person. This  guided tour includes the kayak, paddle, safety vest, snorkel gear, a whistle and a seat with a back. Alternatively, you can challenge yourself with a fishing trip via kayak. Fishing from a kayak is the best way to access the most shallow of the flats areas to snag Bonefish,Tarpon, Permit, Snook, Sharks, Snappers and much more.  The tour costs $99 for 3 hours, extra if you are not providing your own bait and tackle.  A Florida State Salt Water fishing license must be in hand to take this tour. For a more breath-taking tour, book a limited spot for one of the few days that Kayak Kings guides a Moonlight Tour through the mangroves.  Watch the sunset and then be guided back through the maze of mangroves under the light of the moon and some glow sticks.  If you are more of an independent/private kayaker, you can rent single or tandem kayaks 7 days a week for $30-$50 for two hours, $10 for each additional hour.
