I have organized similar trips in the past for scuba divers. We used to call
them "Cyberdives". My suggestion would be a paddle in the Everglades, either
the Loxahatchee reserve canoe trail and/or the Loxahatchee river, an almost
prehistoric old Florida paddle, but not suited for a seayak. Then a meander
down to Key Largo (a 3 +- hour drive) and paddle in Florida Bay, possibly
over to the Everglades Park. 

Water temperatures will be in the low 70s and air should be about the same.
It's always possible to get some blustery weather caused by regular fronts
moving through, but there's enough flat water around to suite almost all
weather conditions.

I don't know the Keys all that well from a paddling perspective, but Florida
Bay  Outfitters, and also Waterways Kayaks will be available for rentals.
Waterways is located next to Ft. Lauderdale Airport, probably the most
convenient port of entry.
