Gulf Coast Kayak

Whether you’re visiting from Fort Myers, Cape Coral, or Pine Island, you will enjoy close viewing of birds and marine life while on our Kayaks and Paddle Boards. Seniors and families are welcome & no experience is necessary! We offer Guided Kayak and Paddle Board Eco-Tours, Kayak Fishing Trips, Lessons, Rentals and Sales for first-timers to advanced paddlers. Join us as we explore the mangroves and back bays of Matlacha Pass Aquatic Preserve on part of the Great Calusa Blueway Paddling Trail, a 190-mile marked paddling trail along the coast of Lee County Florida. Discover numerous mangrove islands and waterways previously fished by the Calusa over 1000 years ago! 

Operating in Matlacha since 1992, our goal at Gulf Coast Kayak is to encourage an awareness of Matlacha and Pine Island’s natural and cultural heritage while promoting ethical ecotourism & providing a unique and safe visitor experience! Family owned & operated, Gulf Coast Kayak is equally intent on building community partnerships through meaningful participation and engagement with local non profit organizations!
