5 of the BEST places to paddle board/ kayak 💧in Florida ☀️

We have explored some pretty great 🤩 places on our paddle boards 💧and have narrowed it down to our top 5 favorite places to paddle just for you 💫.

1️⃣ Ginnie Springs 💧. We had a great experience but heard it isn’t always family friendly. It’s probably best to visit on a weekday (during the day) unless you are looking for a party 🍻 scene. There are several springs to explore as you paddle and the kids had a blast on the rope swing which may or may not be in use anymore from what we have heard 👂?
2️⃣ Weeki Wachi Springs 💧 State Park. We put our boards in at the state park and paddled all the way to Rogers Park. The water was crystal clear and we saw lots of wildlife including manatees.
3️⃣ Rainbow Springs State Park. We felt like we were in a tropical paradise on this paddle run. There was an abundance of palm trees 🌴 and the water was crystal clear and blue 💧. We made several stops along the way and snorkeled 🤿.
4️⃣ Ichetucknee took us by surprise in a good way 😍! We had an amazing paddle down a quiet river and saw all sorts of wildlife including deer 🦌, birds 🦢, fish 🐠, and alligators 🐊!
5️⃣ Bahia Honda State Park 🌴. This was our first time paddling the ocean 🌊. We loved the clear water and variety of ocean life we saw including several crabs 🦀, two stingrays and even a sea turtle 🐢. We were able to paddle right up to the beach 🏖️ which was pretty incredible 😎.

There are a lot of amazing places to paddle in the USA 🇺🇸 and we want to experience more of them!!! Where are your favorite places to kayak/paddle 🚣? Don’t forget to save ✅ this post for fun on the water in Florida ☀️!
