We tag along for a Wakulla Springs Wildlife Survey, and the volunteer surveyors share decades of wildlife photos from the spring.

RiverTrek is a five day kayak trip down the Apalachicola River. We explore swamps, camp on sand bars, and meet some locals.

We kayak down the Chipola River in north Florida, stopping to explore a cave called the Ovens, and have lunch alongside a spring.

At Bald Point State State Park, we kayak by fishermen, oystermen, migratory ducks, and monarch butterflies- some of the best of natural north Florida.

Kayak Tate’s Hell and ride with the Riverkeeper through the Apalachicola River delta. These wetlands & waterways are important to the local seafood economy.

The Aucilla River’s black waters hide archeological treasures, having served Floridians for thousands of years. It’s also a challenging kayak & canoe trail.

In Part 1 (of 2) of RiverTrek 2012, eleven paddlers head down the Apalachicola River. Within the first two days, they find themselves climbing down into caves and scaling bluffs as they get to know the area around the river as well.

The Florida Circumnavigational Trail is mapped for long distance kayak and canoe camping trips, but with the flexibility for shorter trips as well.
