It was about this spot where a manatee popped its head up, right in front of my kayak and then proceeded to swim directly beneath my kayak in crystal clear shallow water.

I opted to just totally engage myself in the experience instead of trying to photograph it.

We rented our kayaks from a place called Kayak Jack's. They were great! You pick a drop-off location and specify a time and your kayaks will be awaiting you, ready for launch!

"We loved this house. We celebrated a cousins 50th birthday and had so much fun. The location is close to all restaurants and beach. The golf cart was so fun to use. The house is nicely stocked with necessary items, pool noodles and toys. There was everything needed for the beach.The most important part was the owners were very responsive to all questions. We look forward to coming and staying here again."

"Exceptional property! We truly had the most amazing stay. The property is so beautiful and clean. It has a ton of charm, and the view off the entire back of the home of the emerald green bay is unmatched!Between waking up to amazing sunrises, hearing the sound of the water, while enjoying the bay breeze and watching all of the dolphins swim by, it was one of the most serene and tranquil experiences. The pool and spa are brand new and we loved having options to swim in the pool, paddle board...

"We were in town for a funeral and were lucky to find this place. It was a great house to allow family to be able to come together and spend time together, but also to have some time to yourself. 10/10 would stay there again if in the area."

"House is a great spot, just know there are a lot of stairs and street is very busy. Communication was excellent with the Manager of the property. House is well stocked and great beach chairs, umbrella and wagon. "

"This place has it all, great communication with the owner, wonderful location across the street from beach, shops, restaurants. Very clean property with pool and all the beach amenities you’ll need for your families. Can’t wait to come back!! "
