Guided kayak tours in Central Florida: The fishin's been good this year

Description of Active Adventure


Kayaking is a great year round sport in Florida! Come experience the “Real Florida” with us. We are located in an area of numerous crystal clear springs that eventually feed into the St. Johns River.

Our guides are outdoorsmen; CPR certified and are well versed in the natural settings. You can bird watch, swim, snorkel, fish or just enjoy lazily paddling these spring fed rivers. We see Great Egret, American Bittern, Woodpeckers, Great Blue Herons, Turkeys, Deer, Raccoon, Gar Fish, Armored Catfish, Striped Bass as well as many others.

These waters create a fantastic environment for many different species of flora and fauna.To learn more about our tours, visit our homepage listed below. We invite you to read through our Blog and learn how an eco tour on Florida's lakes and rivers can bring you the serenity we all look for from time to time.

Typical Day


A typical day can last anywhere from 2 to 8 hours depending on what you want to explore. Our guests have the opportunity to create their own kayak tour or choose from those listed below. All of our tour prices are per person, plus tax and booked by reservation. Our staff can help you choose the trip that’s best for you. Please don't hesitate to call or email us when you are ready to take a trip on Florida's wonderful waterways!

Dora Canal
A local icon, old Florida cypress swamp. Big trees, lots of birds and an Otter Clan. Blink your eyes and you are in Seminole Indian country! A real nice 2 hour getaway from it all!!!!
Level of Difficulty: No Experience Necessary $59.00

Emerald Cut
This area hasn't see people in years. It is in the process of being cleared from the hurricane debris of 2003 & 2004. It offers breath taking scenery and quiet areas to just relax and enjoy... any time of year. Located in Apopka, it's a quick trip from Orlando and a great 2-3 hour tour.
Level of Difficulty: Previous Experience Necessary $59.00

Rock Springs Run
This is a fantastic 8.5 mile trip down stream. The river meanders through enchanted forests as well as wide open savannas. The water is crystal clear and home to many types of fish and wading birds. You'll also have a chance to see raccoon, bobcat, turtles etc. There is even a tree swing if you choose to go for a swim. Being close to Orlando also makes this a favorite. It is a great 3-5 hour trip.
Level of difficulty: No Experience Necessary $ 89.00

Wekiva River
Paddle up to Wekiva Falls and back. Three springs pour into this pristine river. The Great Egret, American Bittern, Woodpeckers, Great Blue Heron, as well as many other Herons and waterfowl flourish on this river. The Ivory-billed Woodpecker at one time called this home. These shallow waters create a fantastic environment for many different species of plants, fish and other wildlife.
Level of Difficulty: No Experience Necessary $89.00

Lil’ Amazon
Come paddle one of Lake County’s hidden gems. This river lazily takes you back in time. With Emeralda Island Bird Sanctuary to the East and Lake Griffin to the West, it’s a wildlife odyssey. All forms of wading birds make this area home for the winter. Look close for rarities such as Black Crowned Night Herons, Limpkins, Wood Storks and maybe even a Purple Gallinule, they are all here! Bald Eagles, Red Tailed and Red Shouldered Hawks and Owls of all sorts are often seen as well. If you want to see the other Florida, this is it!
Level of Difficulty: No Experience Necessary $89.00

Silver River
Exceptionally scenic! Some twists and turns of this river can reach depths of over 25 ft and it’s so clear that you can see the bottom at any depth. You will definitely hone your paddling skills going upstream but a first magnitude spring makes the trip back a breeze! You’ll have a chance to see lots of wildlife; otters, wading birds, hawks, owls, raccoons, wild pigs and more. See giant garfish, armored catfish, bowfin and maybe even a monkey or 12.
Level of Difficulty: Must be In Good Shape or you will be when you’re done $99.00

Lots of Fun = Lots of Great Memories

To prepare for your excursion, here is a quick checklist of items you will need to bring:

1. Your lunch (depending upon trip time and duration)
2. Non-alcoholic beverages
3. Sun block
4. Proper water attire
5. Water shoes (old sneakers will do just fine as well)
6. Sun glasses

Also, it's always good to dress in layers. That is a great way to maximize your comfort and we can store your things in the dry storage of the kayaks or a dry bag. During the warmer months, you might want to bring an extra set of clothes with you and a towel. That way you are prepared if you decide to cool off in the water.

Your guide will provide:
A cooler with ice to store your lunch and beverages, a first aid kit, drinking water, the kayaks, paddles, PFD (life jackets), narration and education of Florida's diverse flora and fauna, some peace & quiet on the water and a great time!

Daily rentals are available on Rock Springs Run & Emerald Cut

Other Information


An introduction to your guides: Kenny Boyd started exploring the rivers and waterways of Central Florida at 17 years of age. His first link to nature began years prior to that as a kid growing up near Jacksonville, FL. He found the lure of these secret spots irresistible and began to strive to inspire others to take a closer look. He is a true Florida boy, graduating high school from Eustis, FL, the same school from which his parents graduated. He then served 4 years in the Navy working the flight deck on two Super Carriers, the Constellation and the Nimitz. During his tenure with the Navy, he experienced many of the world’s ports and became certified in Jungle Environmental Survival in the Philippines. He was the Florida off road motorcycle champion and has spent years as an off road guide through the Ocala National Forest and the Central Florida area. He served on the USDA Forest Service, Ocala Access Work Group in 2001 to help protect the precious resources we have available to us within the forest. He is a member of the Coastal Conservation Association, Ducks Unlimited and is CPR and AED certified. With a knowledge and uncanny intuition of Florida’s wildlife, a self taught birder with an exceptional eye, his knowledge of the wildlife within FL exceeds most expectations. He has a great sense of humor and makes each and every trip an enjoyable one for all involved.
Jenny Boyd is a Florida native. She was born in Eustis, FL where she and her husband Kenny reside now. Her love for the great outdoors started at a very young age. Being concerned that she would waddle down to the lake they grew up on, her sisters taught her to swim when she was an infant. At the age of 5, she went on her first hiking trip, riding on the top of her Dad’s backpack, while her family hiked through the Smokey Mountains. This trip started her curiosity and education of the flora and fauna that exists in the Southeast region and her knowledge continues to grow. She and Kenny hike and camp every chance they get throughout FL and the mountains of NC and TN. In 2002, Jenny started volunteering at S.A.D.L.E.S. an organization that is committed to helping children of all ages through Equine therapy. This brought her love of the great outdoors and animals together and enabled her to help teach others as well. She is a member of the Coastal Conservation Association and Ducks Unlimited. Our mission, Jenny says, is to help others experience the peaceful, rejuvenating, fun side of these beautiful backcountry places that exist here in Central Florida. Being outside, with nature, in a peaceful environment, away from the hustle and bustle has a calming effect on people and has been proven to reduce stress. That is what we hope to accomplish. When your customers leave with a huge smile on their face, thanking you for doing something you love to do, it warms your heart.
