Quick Details
Away from all the hustle and bustle of Siesta Key, is our favorite local beach, Turtle Beach. It is only a few short miles from the main Siesta Key beach to Turtle Beach and the Sarasota County trolley will drop you right there. Not only is this area such a beautiful and quiet place, it is also a great place to kayak or paddleboard!
We offer single and double kayak rentals as well as stand up paddleboards and surfboard rentals at this location. The kayaks and paddleboards are perfect to explore the beautiful surrounding waterways. Don’t worry about getting lost—we will supply you a map and give you some pointers about the area and where to go paddle to have a good chance of seeing wildlife.
The surfboards/boogie boards can be walked across the parking lot to some great little waves at Turtle Beach.
All equipment comes with the necessary safety equipment.
This is THE best paddling eco-tour in Sarasota. The highlight of the tour is paddling through the winding tunnels cut through the mangroves. The mangrove tunnels at Ted Sperling Park are a very special place. Wildlife abounds on this paddle with interesting birds, fish, invertebrates, and even marine mammals. Many people say this tour was the best and most memorable part of their Sarasota vacation and for good reason!
