The protected hardwood creek in Yulee, Florida allows for a relaxing paddle through the canopied blackwaters. Shaded and shielded from the winds, the creek cuts through the forest and wanders back in time. See alligators sunning on the banks and Cypress knees rising out of the tea colored waters.
Paddle at your own pace through towering maple and cypress trees. See if you can paddle far enough to reach "the Cypress Tree," soaring over 150 feet into the sky and worth the paddle itself.
The creek is located thirty minutes from the shop and is a short drive from Amelia Island. Typically we enjoy two hours of paddling on this easy year-round trip.
