Tips for a Fun and Rewarding Kayak Trip

You’ve finally booked your Desoto Kayak Tour and now it’s time to get out on the beautiful waters of Emerson Point Preserve. Now what do you need to have a fun and rewarding kayak trip? The truth is not too much! Nature provides the beauty. And we take care of the safety equipment. You need to bring your sense of adventure and fun.

Of course you want to be protected against the elements. In Florida of course you want to protect yourself from the sun. So it’s a good idea to bring sunscreen so you don’t get sunburnt. It’s also a good idea to wear a hat. A hat will not only protect you from the sun, but it’s a helpful aid in providing shade to see in the water better. So when your helpful guide points out local wildlife such as manatees or dolphins you are able to see them better. A pair of polarized sunglasses will help protect your eyes from the sun and aid in seeing wildlife in the water as well.

Kayaking is relaxing, but when the weather is warm, it’s a good idea to bring along some water to keep hydrated. You could also bring along a snack too. Just be sure to take any trash with you when your tour is over.

Your kayak tour is sure to be memorable so you want to be sure to capture the moment on camera, whether that be by a camera or a smart phone. Just be aware that it could get wet, so either have protection for it in case it gets splashed or we encounter a passing shower.

We provide instructions and comfortable life vests, so you really need to bring along your sense of adventure and be ready to have a long lasting fun memory of your kayak trip! Book your kayak tour here!
