About

The Kayak Trail Tour is a wonderful introduction to Tarpon Bay and the coastal environment. Visitors will kayak with an experienced naturalist through the mangrove forest along Tarpon Bay’s Commodore Creek Trail. The trail provides a unique and up-close perspective to the mangrove habitat. Paddlers will learn about the J.N. “Ding” Darling National Wildlife Refuge’s rich mangrove ecosystem and the wildlife living within it. You’ll be surrounded by red mangroves, wading birds and unsurpassed peace and quiet. In addition to the education paddlers receive on the tour, another benefit is that paddlers are allowed the keep the kayak for the remainder of the day FREE of charge to explore!

Things to Know

  • Paddlers must stay within Tarpon Bay and may not leave campus and return later to kayak for free.

  • The Kayak Tours are conducted in Double Kayaks, unless your group is an odd number (i.e. odd paddler out would be in a single).

  • If our tours are booked, you can always Rent a Kayak to paddle on your own.

Waiver Acknowledgment

  • You must sign our general release of liability waiver prior to your trip departure.
  • The Waiver must be signed by all participants 18 years and older - Children do not need to sign, but their names need to be listed.
