About this tour
Set out on a Big Hickory Island Hobie kayak tour and experience Florida’s waterways at an easy, hands-free pace. Your guide, Mike, is a lifelong Florida native who shares his passion for the region’s ecosystems as you explore by water.
Hobie kayaks use the Mirage pedal drive system, letting you propel the kayak with your feet while keeping your hands free for photography, fishing, or simply enjoying the scenery. The efficient, intuitive system makes for a smooth outing across a four-hour adventure. Life vests, dry bags, and complimentary cold water are provided.
Find the kayak launch halfway along Big Hickory Island by entering “Big Hickory Island” in Google Maps or Apple Maps. Avoid the bridge launch sites. Public transportation options are available nearby. This experience is suitable for all fitness levels, though it is not recommended for travelers with poor cardiovascular health.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 30 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Naples
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 8.3. Top 21% in Naples means it ranks in the top 21% of tours in Naples by this score.
