Awesome training. Anthony is very methodical and is an expert on kayaking skills, techniques, and recommended equipment. He is also flexible on scheduling. I highly recommend using him for all things relating to kayaking.

I thoroughly enjoyed the education I received at this workshop. Ant’s expertise in paddlesports is exceptional. He demonstrated remarkable patience with all students, taking the time necessary to ensure everyone comprehended the material. I highly recommend Ant to anyone seeking to enhance their skills, regardless of their experience level.

Anthony at Kayak ANT is a true professional guide who takes his job very seriously. Safety, navigation, communication are all next level so you can enjoy your trip and the great outdoors. I was in a group of 7 with a wide level of kayaking experience. We all had a great time and enjoyed this unique experience. The rental kayak and camping equipment were in excellent condition. The food, cookouts, and camps were well prepared. I highly recommend Kayak ANT if you are considering a trip in the Everglades and 10,000 Islands.

I had a blast! Anthony and Astrid were our expert guides, steering our group of seven through the ten thousand islands where we learned how to kayak to several different island campsites. They were our teachers and camp counselors, and possessed a great deal of patience and compassion for each of us. By day we learned much, sometimes one-on-one work to improve paddling strokes, or communal lessons in water rescue and safety, or practical navigation. At night we gazed at the many stars that shone brightly, away from city glow, the Milky Way visible. It was my first time camping since childhood and only my third time in a kayak. It was a challenging adventure into nature with memories I will forever cherish, like watching an osprey catch a fish in shallow water close by, or seeing sting rays flutter away from approaching steps. Having the confidence of being able to cross choppy water in a kayak with a spray skirt is only one of the many valuable lessons I will take from this trip. I would highly recommend such an excursion for anyone seeking to reconnect with nature and at the same time improve their kayaking skills.

A fantastic adventure exploring the Ten Thousand Island area of the Everglades last week. Right from day one we learned how to pack gear along with the shared community gear in an organized fashion. Next we learned how to team lift fully loaded kayaks into the water for launch.....this skill would be used several more times when we were ready to launch and the tide was low. The views, islands, and waters were spectacular. Anthony taught us how to improve paddle stokes, how to handle our kayaks in beam waves, head on waves and following seas. His calm professional attitude was very reassuring. Meals? Incredible for having everything packed into our kayaks! Hot breakfasts, lunches, and dinners of great variety. Anthony's experience was a A+++ for us. We would definitely go on another adventure trip with Kayak ANT! We brought our own camping gear, but did rent one of the kayaks. The folks who rented the full gear package were very pleased. Not one of our group of 8 paddlers had any gripes about the trip....just the raves of the fun we had!
