Everglades Kayak Tours

Sun Dappled Mangroves

We offer fully outfitted and guided sea kayak tours from 3 hours to 8 days in the backcountry of Everglades National Park. Come kayak the Everglades with us!

Fully Experience the Everglades Happy Camper

Have you always been curious about the Everglades, but are unsure how to approach this huge wilderness? Are you eager not just to see but to intimately experience this unique environment? Well then, don't acccept a quick look from a tour van window or speeding airboat. Come immerse yourself in the Everglades back country with us and experience the tranquility of the wilderness after the crowds leave for the day.

Our Everglades tours are simply amazing, with 10,000 small mangrove islands to explore, white sand beaches, exotic wildlife, fantastic food, first-class camping, and great company. Imagine yourself camping on soft white sand beaches, atop shell mounds constructed by the Calusa natives of the past, and above the water on wooden "chickee" platforms. You will experience spectacular sunsets from remote beaches, enjoy freshly prepare local seafood around a blazing campfire, sleep under immense star filled skies and awaken to songbird-filled mornings from your cozy sleeping bag.

Escape Winter in the Everglades

Washington PalmsAre you looking for a wilderness adventure which offers an escape from winter's chill? The Everglades are the perfect choice! As the weather cools off up north and winter sets in, the Everglades reach their prime. This time of year is our dry season. Sunny clear skies, warm days, and cool nights provide perfect weather for outdoor adventure during the "winter" months. The Everglades are also an easily accessible subtropical wilderness located within the English-speaking continental United States. Our location in south Florida is within a short drive of three major airports for quick, convenient and inexpensive connections to the rest of the world.

Our tours are operated inside Everglades National Park which is one of America's world heritage sites and protects the largest wilderness area in the eastern U.S. You will kayak though the maze of the 10,000 Islands, pull through narrow mangrove tunnels, paddle into the mysterious cypress swamp, follow the famous Wilderness Waterway, float along white sand beaches, and sea kayak in the open water of the Gulf of Mexico. Imagine yourself gracefully kayaking just inches away from playful dophin, shy manatee and actually timid alligator. Enjoy watching flocks of ibis pass by, witnessing an osprey pluck a meal from the sea, and maybe spotting a vibrant roseate spoonbill.
