We were contacted by Ned 3 days before letting us know that the Manatees were on the move as the temperature was rising. He offered us a full refund or an alternative experience. What good service! We couldn’t take him up on the alternative option as we were flying home so had to opt for the refund. We will definitely re-book when re return to Florida.
Thank you Ned for your honesty! read less

He did not disappoint. I had only paddleboarded once and my friend was new to it, but he did a great job of putting us at ease with simple, clear instructions. The water was calm and with very little wind, paddling was easy and the scenery was beautiful. The manatees were easy to find and amazing to watch as they swam right underneath our boards. What a wonderful experience! Uncle Ned felt like hanging out with an old friend right from the beginning. read less

Paddleboard Orlando has provided some incredible experiences every time we have booked an event. That’s for families, adults and even group team building exercises.

As a lifelong Florida resident and visitor, viewing the Manatees has always been a wonderful experience. Ned and Paddleboard Orlando take this to another level!

We were able to get as close as humanly possible to over 30 manatees. Several came up to our paddleboards! Cannot get closer than that.

All of us learned things about these incredible creatures and the things we have to do to protect them.

Paddleboard Orlando provides top experiences for any visitors and long time residents of Central Florida.

Highly recommend the Manatee experience or any of the Wekiva Springs experiences.

No experience is necessary! Ned and his crew take care of everything and even novice and first timers on paddleboards will find these experiences a trip of a lifetime! read less

I took my 21 year old daughter on this tour and we both absolutely loved it!!! First we booked the tour over the phone after asking several questions and the person on the phone “Uncle Ned” was very helpful and reassuring. Neither my daughter or i have ever paddle boarded before, i am not in good shape and i was nervous 😟. I actually called back a week later and was reassured again the staff helps you all the way if needed! The staff is so amazing and i was clearly the newbie beginner paddle boarder and i had the time of my life!!! This tour is for everyone and anyone!!! Highly recommended! So many manatees come up to you and you can enjoy them or paddle away and enjoy from a distance. They are beautiful gentle animals. The guides take photos of each paddle and they call everyone by their name and paid special attention to each paddler. The service they offer is unique but the quality and genuine personality they give each customer is so special and rare!! High light of our vacation. Thank you Paddle board Orlando. ❤️ read less

Fun time. It was super windy which made it challenging but the boards and paddles were nice!

This time, we close this experience and it was absolutely fantastic. Never having paddle boarded before, we chose to go on the Thursday morning beginners class which lasted 2.5 hours, and it was absolutely superb. Fun and sociable, with an excellent way to see some superb scenery. It also helps your core fitness. What’s not to love? We will return next time the manatees are around and hope that the experience will be even better. Highly recommended. Ned is a fantastic ‘coach’ with a great sense of humour. This really was excellent value and fantastic fun. read less

I was sooo nervous the first time I went--I thought I'd totally embarrass myself. But Uncle Ned is a great teacher and I was up and at it in no time!

On the water, no walls , lots of breathing room- sooo much freedom. You gotta TRY it, and if you do there’s NO ONE that’s going to take care of YOU on the water like paddle board Orlando.

They make you feel safe, and secure.

Thanks for the water adventures.
