The kayak is awesome. Extremely stable platform.mike was amazing to deal with when purchasing. Overall an absolute great experience.
Love the kayak. Mike was super to deal with and work with. Took all the time to answer any questions I had. 5 stars for sure.
Finally got out on the water over the weekend and found the Odyssey to be a very stable platform to fish off of even in mild chop know to the intercostal waterway in ozello. Kayak is is responsive and very quick in the water. Glad I held out on this purchase and found a local company to go through. Awesome deal and awesome kayak. Wife will probably be in the market soon and I know where we will be going!
This model looks so much better in person I am beyond happy and has absolutely exceeded my expectations.
My wife and I purchased two Odyssey 10 Kayaks. Their size and weight were perfect for us. They are very stable in the water, and today we had no trouble paddling against the incoming tide. When we decided to head back, we let the current do most of the work.
Customer service, both before and after the sale, has been excellent. We were confident and comfortable enough to drive down from North Florida to Safety Harbor and try out several of the models that Tampa Bay Paddle Company had to offer. We liked everything we tried, but the Odyssey 10 was the right fit for us. Mike is awesome to do business with and truly puts the customer first. If any of my extended family wants a kayak, we will definitely be buying from TBPC.
We had such a great experience with Tampa Bay Paddle Company! Mike and Giselle are incredibly kind and knowledgeable. You can tell they really care about helping customers find the right fit, not just making a sale.
They let us test the kayak on the water first—totally free—which gave us confidence in our decision. We bought 2 of the Odyssey 12, and they are awesome! They also offer free delivery, which was super convenient, and even financing options if you need it.
It’s rare to find this level of customer service and honesty. If you’re in the market for a kayak or paddle gear, this is the place to go!

Tampa Bay Paddle Company is the real deal & they are super knowledgeable and make the process easy, not salesy. We got to demo the Odyssey 12s at Alligator Lake — gorgeous setting, wildlife sightings included for free.
We bought two kayaks, got free delivery, and loved that they offer financing too. They’re even adding more accessories online, which is dangerous for people like us who love gear.
Great Experience – with Mike & his lovely wife! Support local — we do, and we’re glad we did.

So glad I found Mike and his company in Safety Harbor. Me
and my girlfriend decided to get the Odyssey’s and they have been top notch products so far. I am an avid fisherman and if you’re looking for a great pedal drive to stand up on and get you in those places where big boats can’t you need to check this out. Mike is also a great salesman, he offered us a test drive before we purchased and let us ride them without any rush. He even delivered them and made came back out to make adjustments on my girlfriend’s and explained everything in detail. I will be recommending this company to anyone looking for a top of the line kayak for a great price! Thanks again Mike!
Mike and his wife are our neighbors and they invited us (me and my wife) to checkout their new Kayak business in Safety Harbor. Although I’ve only kayaked once or twice in my life, I really loved their Kayaks. It’s durable and very stable. Great for fishing too! Great job guys and good luck with your new adventure.
Mike and his wife are really nice. High quality kayaks with super tough components. Glad to have a mom and pop shop in safety harbor.
