Amelia Island Guided Kayak Tour of Lofton Creek

Overview

The Lofton Creek Kayak Tour is perfect for paddlers of any level, including children and beginners. It’s an intimate nature experience in which participants can expect to get up close and personal with turtles, alligators, snakes, otters, and occasionally, manatees. The terrestrial nature of the forest attracts pileated woodpeckers, red shoulder hawks, and the curious anhinga, sometimes referred to as the “water turkey.” The protected makeup of Lofton Creek means paddling here is “weather resistant” to tumultuous coastal conditions. A south-bound paddle on Lofton Creek provides picturesque marsh views, whereas a north-bound paddle is a more remote, forested experience. The Lofton Creek Kayak Tour is a guaranteed good time for everyone in your group!

A large crowd. Some beginners, families, single kayaks, double kayaks and every person beautifully assisted by our two guides. Lofton creek offers sun, shade, native plants and animals. Any question asked the guides knew the answer. It was an amazing first time in a kayak and I can’t wait to do another tour through Amelia adventures.

Thank you for your thoughtful and beautiful review of Amelia Adventures. We appreciate every word and look forward to touring with you again. We can paddle Lofton again (because it is one of our favorites) or try another waterway like Egan's Creek or the Amelia River. Either way, we will have fun. Until next time. -Catherine

Our 8 year old son had a fantastic time at the Kayak Summer Camp! He is already talking about going back next year!

Great tour, everyone in our family had a really fun time on our morning excursion at Lofton Creek! Catherine was great; she took great pictures, taught us quite a bit about the ecosystem there, and made sure we all had a good time.

I am happy to read your thoughtful review. Thank you! We appreciate you choosing us and as always, we love sharing the beauty of Lofton Creek and all of the waterways we tour. Next time you are here we can paddle Lofton again or try kayaking Egan's Creek or the Amelia River. Both are great for kids. Until next time. -Catherine
