Get Ready to Row-Row-Row
Paddle adventurers take it to the great wide open to explore the waters, shallow or deep, fresh or salty. It is best described as a world of discovery at an easy pace. Marvel at marine life up-close and personal, or absorb the stunning views either on stand-up boards, kayaks, or canoes. From freshwater spring-fed rivers to salty tidal waterways, Northwest Florida has plenty of paddling trails.
