What to Expect

Paddle-Only Antelope Canyon Kayak Tour

Join us for an unforgettable guided kayaking experience as we explore the stunning beauty of Antelope Canyon entirely from the water. Launching from Antelope Point Public Ramp, your guide leads the group on a scenic paddle approximately 1 mile into the heart of the canyon, where towering sandstone walls begin to close in and the landscape transforms.

As we continue paddling deeper—up to 1.5 miles through the narrowing canyon—your guide sets the pace, points out striking geological features, and shares insight into the natural forces that shaped this iconic place. Light, water, and stone come together to create mesmerizing colors and reflections that make this stretch of canyon so unforgettable.

Depending on the season and conditions, your guide may pause at a scenic spot on the return paddle for a refreshing swim and a moment to soak it all in.

This paddle-only tour is a relaxed yet immersive way to experience one of Lake Powell’s most photographed destinations, perfect for guests who want to stay on the water while still enjoying a fully guided, meaningful journey.
