Kayak & Paddle Boarding

Either Oar -The Choice is Yours.

Grab your kayak or paddleboard and catch the drift on one of our diverse waterways.  Launch your kayak and glide for miles above the pristine, shallow bottom of St. Joseph Bay. With clear water, you can easily spot dolphins, sea turtles and an array of fish; so be sure to pack your binoculars AND fishing rod. For the seasoned paddler, the 2.5-mile paddle from St. Joe Beach to the remote tip of Cape San Blas is an exhilarating trip.

Want a change of scenery where you’re likely to find eagles, alligators and an experience with nature you’ll never forget? Head to North Gulf County to kayak the mysterious Dead Lakes in Wewahitchka.

What’s SUP? Enjoy a bird’s eye view above one of our calm waters and soak in the beauty of Gulf County. Local outfitters can get you on the water with a kayak or paddleboard for the day or the week. If you’re looking for expert knowledge, hook up with a local guide. No matter what you choose, there is plenty of space (and water) for everyone!

Watch this video of a bird’s eye view of the natural wonder of the Dead Lakes.  You can launch your own kayak and tour or contact a local charter today.
