What to expect
Venice, Italy is not the only place known for its waterways… Try Venice, Florida! On our two-hour kayak tours, we will guide you through tropical waterways that give you a chance to explore Florida’s vegetation and wildlife up close. We will learn about the natural surroundings and history of Southwest Florida while enjoying an experience on the water!
We will start at the South Venice Beach Kayak Launch where we will do a safety talk, explain kayaking procedures, and discuss the route. After a short walk to the water, we will be off on our adventure! The paddle starts in the canals of South Venice and down Alligator Creek where we will explore the flora and fauna of Florida while getting an excellent workout! After approximately 40 minutes in the canals, we will cross the intercoastal waterway to land on the East side of Manasota Key. There, we will dock the boats and spend time exploring South Venice's private beach, accessible only by boats. The South Venice and Englewood beaches are known for their shell and shark teeth collections, so who knows what we will find! After spending some time exploring the beach, we will get back into the kayaks and return to the launch point.
