We're a group of people who like to kayak every other weekend or so in various areas around Tampa Bay, and other nearby lakes, rivers, and bays. These are low to medium intensity trips with either picnics or restaurant stops planned, along the occasional group camping and campfire event, either in a campground with water access, or on the shore during an overnight paddle. Fun and relaxation, safety and socialization will be the names of the game here! Kayakers of all levels are welcome. We strive to have a family atmosphere at our meetups, so bring along the kids if you want to! Additionally, we are now adding weekday and weekend bicycling events to our calendar... so STAY FIT and ENJOY!

**AHEM**

Now that it's beginning to cool down, let's head down to Myakka River State Park and visit the infamous Gator Hole in the Lower Lake preserve! Althought there are many paddles that can be done at this "Wild & Scenic" park, this is the Ranger's Pick! During our visit last year, we counted over 50 Gators in one area! Besides the amazing amount of Gators, this is a truely scenic paddle! Don't miss it! Read more

 Peer Pressure! 

 You never know what you are going to get with this group. In my experience, it has been a good thing. I am just waiting for the day George brings his dog on the water with him.
