Canoe and Kayak trips give nature center visitors a close-up view of the Cocohatchee River. The pristine estuary is home to endless trails and hidden coves teeming with wildlife. Wiggins Pass and the white sandy beaches of the Gulf of Mexico are less than a two-mile paddle along the river.

Guided tours are available by appointment. Private guided tours $20 per hour for the guide (3 hour minimum) for up to 4 persons ($5 an hour per person in the group over 4). Regular canoe and kayak rates still apply.
