Before living in Florida, when I heard the phrase “Everglades,” I automatically thought of alligators, dark muddled waters, venomous snakes, and tons of overgrowth. But after living here on and off for over 15 years, I’ve been to the Everglades a handful of times, and it always is a worthwhile adventure, especially when you can actually get in the water! Thanks to companies like Florida Outdoor Adventures, adventurists can paddle through the third largest National Park in the USA and even spend the night! Come experience the real Everglades on this overnight camping trip in Florida.
Paddle the Florida Everglades and stay overnight with an incredible adventure tour. This is one way to see an entirely different side of Florida altogether.
If you’re a novice paddler, don’t worry, this is why guided tours from places like Florida Outdoor Adventures exist. You can sign up for a 3-day, 5-day, or 8-day Everglades kayak tour.
The guided kayak tours will take guests through a maze of 10,000 islands before entering into the open Gulf of Mexico. Meandering through hidden mangrove waterways, keeping your eyes open for birds, alligators, manatees, and dolphins.
These guided tours are all-inclusive, with a professional leader, a backcountry permit, all kayak equipment, camping gear, and food. Besides the personal packing list provided before you launch, you don’t need to worry about a thing except perhaps to enjoy yourself.
The different tour options available will vary in activity rating, with the easy overnight trip for families and beginners being the 3-day. There will be at least three hours of paddling each day, so make sure you’re prepared!
