DAY TRIPPIN’
Kayaking in Pasco County!
Do you have a small budget but want to have a BIG TIME? You should visit one of our local Pasco County Parks and spend the day Kayaking.
What we love about kayaking is its connection to nature. Kayaking is an activity suitable for beginners. Each kayaker determines their own speed and distance without pressure. You can choose whether to explore a winding river or make your way into the Gulf of Mexico.
Some parks require an entry fee. On average, you may spend $5 per carload.
If you don’t own your own kayak, no worries! Local kayak rental companies offer 2, 4, and 8-hour rental rates for both single and tandem kayaks. They most likely also provide life jackets.
Save $$$ Pack your lunch and bring plenty of water.
