Very beautiful park. My partner and I rented a kayak and a stand up paddle and we passed through some beautiful areas. I would recommend a full day in this park. Unfortunately, we could only afford a few hours in there. They also have bike and hike trails.

I've used their tour guides for kayaking multiple times and each time I haven't been disappointed. They always seem knowledgeable and our last tour guide stopped by the beach so we can get a small break. I highly recommend a tour guide if this is your first time at this park or kayaking. Coming in early allows you to avoid the long line to enter the park. We had to reschedule our most recent tour because the line was too long to come in.

This is a beautiful state park north of Miami. We came to kayak. Our first time, we couldn't go because it was too windy, so there was no kayaking. We had better luck the second time. We kayaked for about 90 minutes. There's a nice loop path through the mangroves that's really pretty. Part if it goes out into the harbor and to a beach. The beach is a nice place to stop and relax. The park itself is great. I'd recommend bringing your own kayaks if you have them though. It was easy to rent them, but when we tried to return them, the company makes you wait in the same line as people who are waiting to get a kayak. It was fine when we got there, but we waited almost an hour before we could leave (and they had our credit card so we had no choice). The minimum rental time is 2 hours and it costs $45 for a tandem kayak. I wish they offered a 1 hour option. The kayak rental company isn't great, but the state park is beautiful.

Questions & Answers

Are dogs allowed on the rented kayaks/canoes?

Yes! Pro tip: Pack a dog life jacket 😉

Are there hourly kayak rentals? If so, what are the rates? I looked on the website and all it showed was a full day rental quote, I just want to sure as I only need a few kayaks for 2-3 hours.

We rented a two person kayak. I believe the rate was 45.00 for the first 2 hours and 5.00 every have hour after that.

What are the hours on the 4th of July?

He exceeded.full that day.

Can you take children on the canoes? Is there an age requirement?

I think as long as the kid fits into the life jacket and is able to swim they're allowed in the kayaks.

Not really. It gets a little deep near the middle

Are there plenty of kayaks--do I have to worry about them running out of rentals--if I don't get there early morning.?

I have an event to attend to tomorrow. How can I find out if they have paid for the parking? If not, do you accept cc cards or a bank card?

Diane Bernstein | Aug 20, 2020

I'm pretty sure parking can't be paid by the event organizer. It's mostly $4 or $6 dollars and is more convenient to pay cash . I'm not sure they still accept credit cards, but it's the case, you'll have to let them know at the gate, park, get inside the office and pay before you can proceed.

How much is the parking on Sundays??

Diane Bernstein | Aug 20, 2020
Gabriel Gareis | Aug 20, 2020

$1 a person; walking or biking. $4 x 1 person in a car. $6 x up to 6 people in 1 car. All days same price. Opens at 8 am until sunset.
