To start, Capt. Markus is such a nice man. Extremely helpful and personable experience. He delivered 2 paddle boards, paddles, and 3 life vests to our camp site for an awesome price and will pick them up when we are finished, as well. I highly recommend using him for your paddle boarding needs! 5 star experience and a lot of fun paddling the beautiful keys!

Capt. Markus set me up with a great paddle board ride to fish off of and give me a few pointers. Had the board for a week and he brought it to the place we rented and picked it up with no issues. He loaned me an anchor to help with the fishing and it was on! Ended up hooking into nearly two dozen juvenile tarpon and landing about half of them off the board. Also caught 10 snook and a bunch of snappers, cudas and jacks to round things out. Great week in the Keys and the trip just would not have been anything close to the same without the board. Thanks man!

Our family came to the Keys for a month (remote working and distance learning). Together with our 8 and 10 year old boys and grandma, we took kayaking trip led by Cassie. We had an amazing time! Learned a lot about marine life and saw a number of creatures by mangroves. Cassie was wonderful - showing and telling us about wildlife we saw, giving my mother-in-law a “tow” when she had trouble steering. Renting a kayak without her “show and tell” would not be the same.
We also rented a SUP from Markus for 2 weeks. He dropped it off at our house. I really enjoyed our chat. In summary, great people and I highly recommend!

Captain M. is amazing!! The kayaks we wanted to rent weren’t being rented at the time I called to order them for the next day so he gave them to us a day early so that my mom could practice ( she was super nervous!). We got two full days of kayaking for the price of one day! He was super generous, extremely nice and the kayaks are great quality. Delivered right to us at Blue Water Key RV Resort. When we come back next year we will most definitely rent from him again! Great experience!

Rented kayaks for a week from Florida Keys Kayaks, and we could not have been happier! They kayaks were exactly as advertised, and were delivered on time exactly as promised with paddles and life jackets. Marcus was friendly and super helpful, and gave us recommendations for a charter captain, snorkeling tour, and restaurant. (The Square Grouper is not to be missed!)

We rented two paddle boards from Captain Marcus, and we have nothing but great things to say. Marcus told us where exactly where to paddle to, and what we would likely see at each spot and we literally saw everything he told us we would see.. We spend almost 8 hours on the water and the only reason why we didn’t spend more, was because the sun was setting. We saw bunch of cool fish, sharks, birds, beautiful corals etc.. Do yourself a favor and call Captain Marcus and rent a kayak or paddle board, you won’t regret it. We will definitely be back.. And best of all, Marcus is just an awesome guy, lots of fun to chat with and knows his stuff.. Booooooom Florida Keys Kayaks and Eco tours, you rock 😊

Keyaks has the best kayaks and services in the Florida Keys. We met Captain Markus over 3 years ago during our first kayak rental and have been extremely pleased with his kind, caring, reliable, and professional services. Each year we have contacted Markus and reserved a double kayak for our RV rental site at Bluewater Key Resort and it’s been there every time on time. Markus is helpful with any questions and the return process is seamless too. We have become good friends and as a professional wildlife and scenic photographer, I have enjoyed utilizing the kayaks for exploring and photographing the area scenery and wildlife. I have added some photos from our Dec 2022 trip on this post and my website photosbyrobwaples.com
Thanks again Markus and see you again soon!

Captain Markus makes an amazing experience amazing-er! Our group of 8 booked a 3 hour kayak tour based on a recommendation from a friend. The Captain and the tour exceeded every expectation we had. We were impressed by Markus' knowledge, reliability, experience and his obvious love for his job and educating others about the fascinating and unique ecosystems of the Florida Keys. On top of all of that, hearing stories of his amazing life and experiences of his career in music was so entertaining! Kayaking through the mangroves was really cool and we saw a lemon shark pup, jellyfish and several species of fish. It wasn't a difficult trip, we took it at a slow pace so we had the best chance of seeing and not disturbing the wildlife.
Captain Markus surprised us with tons of photos and videos he took on our tour that he emailed to me so quickly too!
Everyone in our group said it was one of the best experiences they've ever had!

I have dealt with Captain Markus for kayak rentals several times now and he never disappoints! Tried paddle boarding this trip and loved it. He had our rentals waiting on us at our campsite when we got there. I decided day 2 I wanted to try paddle boarding and he brought one right out for me to try. He then went above and beyond when I messaged back that I would love to swap one of my kayaks for a paddle board and had that done within no time.
I highly recommend you give him a call. He will be our go to anytime we are in the area.

Captain Marcus gave us great directions thru the backcountry and told us of special spots to stop and check things out. He gave us a lot of information about the keys that we have never heard before. Thanks Marcus for setting us up to have a great day.

I am not able to find a phone number for FL Keys Kayaks and Eco Tours nor a website. I would like to book a tour - but need some help contacting them!
Written April 2, 2018
Our website and phone number is right there on TripAdvisor at the top of our page but if you go to our website here it is keyaks .
I location our phone number and everything else you need is right there call me if you have any questions at 305-395-2715. This is the first time anybody's had any issues trying to find us off of TripAdvisor. I'm going to look into this very strange
