About
When I’m not in the freshwater and want to head to the beach, this is one of my new favorite places to go! We will paddle the North Indian River Lagoon looking for all kinds of wildlife. The most common we see are the dolphins, aquatic birds, sting rays, and sea turtles with the occasional appearance of a manatee or two. We may stop at one of the Islands to stretch our legs and play in the water along the way (please bring water shoes if you want to get in the water. Shells hurt!). We paddle about 1.5 miles and the tour starts and ends in the same location. Hats and Sunglasses are recommended for this tour since we will be in direct sunlight the whole time. My tours are capped at 6 kayaks per tour, perfect for families and smaller groups!
