Watch the sunset, then paddle through glowing coastal waters and mangrove tunnels in a clear kayak near Anna Maria Island.

About this tour

Watch the Gulf Coast sunset from the water, then see the shoreline take on a new glow as you paddle into the evening. On this Anna Maria Island Clear Kayak Tour, a 100% clear tandem kayak and bright LED lights reveal the water beneath you, with marine life moving below as you glide along calm coastal waters.

The 90-minute experience takes place near Neal Preserve and includes a paddle through scenic mangrove tunnels after sunset. Supportive seats and provided safety equipment help make the outing suitable for a range of fitness levels. A local guide leads the way, while the glowing kayaks turn a peaceful paddle into a memorable way to explore the coast. Parking is included, and the operator is a locally and female-owned small business.

Choose this Anna Maria Island Clear Kayak Tour for a sunset outing that continues after dusk. Arrive at the gravel area by the mangroves, find the guide near the aluminum kayak trailer, and get ready to watch the water light up beneath your paddle.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.92 from 13 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 Sarasota
  • 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 7.5. Top 41% in Sarasota means it ranks in the top 41% of tours in Sarasota by this score.
