Multi-day Trips
There's no better way to explore an area than by kayak. The immersion in the habitat and slow pace of travel are perfect for getting to know a place. So several times a year we leave our home waters to explore other areas, and would love to have you join us. Most of our overnight trips are "soft adventure" - we kayak and explore during the day, but return to a glass of wine, dinner, hot shower and a soft bed at night. Here are some of our trips past, present and future.
Suwannee River, January 24-30, 2010 FULL
Suwannee River, February 6-12, 2010
FULL
$525 pp, double occupancy
This is a river we've been wanting to explore for years, and we've figured out a great way to do it! Origin to outfall, we will paddle this long river in 5 sections - starting at it's headwaters in the Okefenokee Swamp, moving into the limestone bluff area in Florida, on past the section where springs dominate the character, and finally out to the Gulf of Mexico where it lends sweetness into the salty waters.Daily trips will be approximately 8-12 miles and shuttle service will be provided on one-way trips.
This trip will be 7 days and 6 nights and include all lodging, 5 guided kayak trips (3 by author and naturalist Lars Andersen) and a couple of breakfasts. Price is $525 per person. We will spend 2 nights in cabins in the Okefenokee, 2 nights in cabins at Suwanee River State Park and 2 nights in a B&B in Cedar Key on the Gulf.
This trip includes the following:
Lodging: 2 nights each at Stephen Foster State Park Cabins (Okefenokee West entrance), Suwannee River State Park Cabins, and Cedar Key B&B.
Kayak trips:
- Okefenokee Swamp (headwaters of Suwannee River) Day 2
- Suwannee River Day 3
- Ichetucknee and Santa Fe Rivers) Day 4
- Lower Suwannee River National Wildlife Refuge Day 5
- Gulf of Mexico (or rest day) Day 6
Guide and shuttle service is included.
The trip price does NOT include:
Transportation to and from the trip, transportation between sites or kayaking equipment (kayak rental is NOT included, and is about $30 per trip - most people are bringing their own kayaks).
There is a $5 per car entrance fee to the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge, and there may be other launch fees at sites, which are usually in the $5 range. This price only includes two meals (the breakfasts at the B&B). All other meals are on your own, and I will help coordinate this to make it easier on everyone.
