Welcome to the Florida Paddling Trails Association’s (FPTA) 2026 PaddleFest & CT Reunion! We are thrilled to be back in the Silver Springs area, home of our very first CT Reunion back in May, 2014. Catch up with old friends, make new ones & network with paddlers from all over Florida. This will be a fun event and you don’t want to miss it but there is a max limit (don’t wait!!), register now!
Your registration fee (listed below), includes all guided paddles, meals (except for lunch), tent camping with restrooms and showers provided, nightly presentations and displays by paddling manufacturers and retailers as well as the US Coast Guard Auxiliary.
There will be a swap meet where you can sell your gear, a kayak raffle (one ticket is complimentary with your registration) and other gear will be raffled off with profits benefitting our Taylor Howard Youth Paddling Fund and CT Fund.
The FPTA was formed in 2007 to serve as a resource and advocate for Florida paddlers. We are stewards of the Florida Circumnavigational Saltwater Paddling Trail (CT) and the rest of our State's beautiful paddling waterways. Our annual PaddleFest is a way that we offer for our paddlers to come together to celebrate all the great paddling that we have in our state as well as to celebrate those who have completed the CT and to provide information to those who are interested in learning more about it.
Don't hesitate to register as the number of participants will be capped at 125.
