Kayaking & SUP

Nothing quite beats the freedom of launching your kayak or SUP-board and go wherever your paddles may lead you. So come on, jump in (or on) and explore low-slung mangroves and crystal clear waterways, or choose to discover the beautiful beaches along the pristine coastline–including our award-winning Caladesi Island.
