About Cocoa Kayaking
Cocoa Kayaking guides paddlers through the most scenic waterways of the Space Coast, with launch sites in the Thousand Islands of Cocoa Beach, on Merritt Island and up in Titusville near the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge. The company specializes in small-group wildlife tours led by certified, trained guides.
The tour menu covers the full lagoon experience: bioluminescent kayak and paddleboard tours in summer, LED-lit night tours for glowing comb jellies in winter, clear-bottom kayak tours, mangrove tunnel paddles through the Thousand Islands, and manatee and dolphin tours in the wildlife refuge. Self-guided rentals and private group tours are also available, and the operation runs seven days a week from morning to night.
Cocoa Kayaking's consistency shows in its shelf of accolades — a TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice Award every year since 2018 and multiple Best of Florida wins. Its guides double as naturalists, and the company gives back with ocean cleanup paddles that combine sightseeing with conservation. For visitors choosing between lagoon outfitters, its range of launch locations means there is a tour close to wherever you are staying.
