A very different way to experience this special island. We'll launch next to Fort Clinch and paddle across Cumberland Sound to the southern tip of Cumberland Island and then into the salt marshes of Beach Creek landing near the Carnegie estate.

Paddle with the current through the marsh along the boundaries of Ft. Clinch State Park. Surround yourself in the spartina and explore the marsh ecosystem up close. Herons, egrets, ibis, wood storks, jumping fish and the occasional dolphin are frequent companions. Finish up on the beaches overlooking

The diversity of life, paired with beautiful scenery, make kayaking this area a must for vacationers and residents alike. Paddle the still mangrove backwaters as osprey soar overhead- perhaps carrying a freshly caught mullet.

Enter into the alligators’ lair. Start out at dusk and paddle into the darkness. Turn on the headlamps to reflect glowing red eyes looking back at you. For the adventurous souls!
