Clear Kayak Tours in Weeki Wachee

Overview

Minutes from the famous Weeki Wachee Springs State Park mermaids see the river from a whole new perspective with this kayaking tour! Ride in a clear kayak- which has the advantage of greater visibility of the underwater world. Kayak quiet and calm coastal waters before paddling up the active and beautiful spring-fed waters of the river. Be on the lookout for wildlife like manatees, turtles, fish, birds and much more! A great adventure for beginners but we do paddle upstream for the first half of the tour, which is a great workout and worth the drift paddle back to the launch site. Your guide will stop for pics along the away! Expect an adventure that is part wild and part urban as this iconic river is a popular one to enjoy living and recreating on! We stay in our kayaks for the duration of the tour. Please remember the river and wildlife is subject to daily changes in behavior and conditions. All kayaks are tandem. Weight limit of 250lbs per seat and 425lbs per kayak.

Our tour with Lisa was the highlight of our trip to Hernando County. We did an 8:00 am tour, and it was absolutely beautiful paddling through the saw grasses and crystal clear waters of the Weeki Wachee. Lisa educated us on the local wildlife, and we even got to see a baby manatee with its mother. I would give 10 stars if it was an option. We will definitely be back!!!

Thank you for your amazing review- and you bet we will tell Lisa she should have 10 instead of 5! We are so happy you saw a mother manatee and her calf! Those moments are so incredible! We look forward to kayaking with you again!

Manatees, Dolphins and SUCH GREAT TOUR GUIDES! Alexis, Lisa & Taylor were so informative, clear and enthusiastic! There were 6 in our family, another couple on vacation and a couple of gals from a Manatee conservation group along with our guides on the 23rd midday tour. It was not hot on the water and we saw LOTS of manatees - More than 10! We enjoyed the easy pace and change of scenery. From estuary to creek to river the water changes along with the vegetation and the animal life (human included) If you find yourself in the Tampa/St Pete/Clearwater area - I highly recommend this group!

This was a nice trip for us since our last one got canceled due to weather a few weeks prior. The guide LISA was very helpful in getting everyone informed on how to use the paddles for first timers and on how to get in the kayaks. There was a group coming in when we were trying to get in and launch and it was like they could not wait 5 min or so. After launching we had a nice trip to the main clear river. This was the peaceful part, no boats or any other groups around us. Once we hit the main river then it got busy. I know it was a Saturday but we got through it. LISA told us about the ecosystem and the plants and was quite knowledgeable about the surrounding areas of the river. The only thing I would say is try to go during the week, but other than that we had a great time
