Description

Ocean Fitness Yoga is proud to present a unique Paddle Adventure Tour on the scenic Weeki Wachee River! MUST PRE-PAY IN ADVANCE. ONLY $40 per person for paddleboard rental. LIMITED AVAILABILITY *Paddle tour price includes souvenir photos on the water, paddleboarding instruction, and all the necessary paddle equipment needed* THIS IS AN INTERMEDIATE LEVEL PADDLE AND WILL TAKE ALL DAY* Previous paddleboarding experience preferred, must know how to swim, and must be comfortable paddling around 6-8 miles (with many breaks to enjoy the river). *This could potentially be an intermediate/ difficult paddle depending on the wind and tides. Launch time may change slightly. Please check in the day before if you are an inexperienced paddler. __________________________ Our Adventure Paddle will begin by launching from Rogers Park ($10 per car for all-day parking). We will launch and paddle UPSTREAM to reach the “blue” section of the river - where the bottom is sandy and the clear water glistens a striking aquamarine color. Our Paddle Tour will continue through the Weeki Wachee Springs State Park where we will explore all the scenic areas, snorkle or swim in the 72 degree year round waters (optional), and hopefully we will encounter manatees, turtles, otters, and all varieties of Florida birds and fish. To reach the famous Weeki Wachee Springs, it's approx a 6 mile paddle upstream from our launch spot (12 miles total roundtrip). We may or may not complete the full paddle depending on the current, weather, wind conditions, and everyone's paddle skills. Good news is we can 'float' with the current without much effort as we paddle back to the launch spot atRogers Park. Around noon or 1pm, we will stop for a lunch break.
