About this activity
Discover the natural beauty of Florida's iconic St. Johns River on a self-guided kayaking adventure. Launch directly from our riverside beach and paddle at your own pace through peaceful waterways surrounded by native wildlife and lush scenery. Whether you're looking for a relaxing escape, a chance to photograph local birds and wildlife, or simply enjoy time on the water, this flexible rental lets you create your own adventure. Choose from a 2-hour, 4-hour, or full-day (7.5-hour) rental to match your schedule and experience level.
Additional Information / Check-in Please arrive at the time of your reservation, as rentals depart promptly. Check in before launching to receive your kayak, paddle, and safety equipment. Kayaks launch directly from a beach, so your feet may get wet during launch. Water-friendly footwear is strongly recommended.
What to expect
Choose the rental duration that best fits your adventure and enjoy a self-guided paddle through the beautiful St. Johns River and its surrounding waterways.
2-Hour Rental Ideal for a quick paddle and exploring the nearby spring run (outside of manatee season). Perfect for beginners or those short on time.
4-Hour Rental Enjoy a more relaxed experience with plenty of time to explore the spring run and surrounding river. Great for wildlife viewing, photography, and taking breaks along the way.
Full-Day Rental (7.5 Hours) Spend the day exploring the St. Johns River at your own pace. Paddle farther into the surrounding waterways, stop to enjoy the scenery, and maximize your chances of spotting local wildlife. Best suited for experienced paddlers or those looking for a full-day outdoor adventure.
Single Kayak Includes one single-person kayak, paddle, and personal flotation device (PFD). No guide is provided—this is a self-guided rental, allowing you to explore independently.
