Everglades Experiences: Paddle The Park

Explore Florida Bay in a powerboat, paddle through the mangrove forests in Lake Ingram and go ashore on Cape Sable’s remote, seldom visited natural beach. Your Captain and Naturalist will help you learn about the ecosystem and wildlife of the Bay on a full-day adventure.

Immerse yourself in the Everglades wilderness with this guided, primitive paddle as we study tropical hammock, sawgrass prairie, and mangrove ecology, the influence of water flow on Everglades ecosystems and how humans have impacted the environment in the Park. Meet your experienced Institute Naturalist at Nine Mile Pond.
