Dora CanalA local icon, old Florida cypress swamp. Big trees and lots of birds. The Great Blue Heron, Great Egret, Osprey, Tri-colored & Night Herons, Anhinga and Cormorants all nest in these tall trees. The sounds from the rookery lets us know that Spring has sprung. Summer brings with it the sights and sounds of the bright yellow Prothonotary Warbler! A real nice 2-3 hour getaway from it all!!!!

Lil’ AmazonCome 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, White Pelicans, 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 $89.00Silver RiverExceptionally 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
Photographers TourThis is a tour for the serious photographer. We have the ability to access some of the most pristine waterways early in the morning and late in the evening when photo taking is at it's best. So, for the photographer who wants to hire a guide for the day, we offer a package that includes being introduced to the wildlife and waters in our tandem kayak. You paddle very little if at all, let the guide take you to the birds and you take the photographs!
