Creek Kayak

It’s not every day that you get to paddle your way down a mangrove creek forest that has been there for over 10,000 years. We kayak up close to shipwrecks, relics of a bygone era (weather/wind permitting) and along the way have the opportunity to spot dolphins. It’s a special experience that simply can’t be replicated, which is why Dolphin Sanctuary Kayak Tours is a must-do! Our guides are marine biologists who have experience and knowledge of working with marine mammals and wildlife. Participants don’t need any prior kayaking experience, and we travel at a comfortable pace to accommodate reasonable fitness levels. We hope to see you paddling with us in the Sanctuary soon! Please note departure times are varied due to tide times and it is essential that you arrive 15 minutes prior to departure time.

Our tours are geared towards first time and new paddlers.  We go at your speed so you don't have to worry about going out and getting exhausted.  Grab a friend and come along for a unique adventure on the #1-rated Eco-Tour through the mangrove ecosystem. Choose your kayak – single or double – and glide in our shallow clear water over sponges, grass beds, and sandy patches. Looking down, you might see a small nurse shark, turtle, or stingray, or can observe dolphins and manatees. Above water, herons, pelicans, and ospreys settle on the mangroves and hunt for fish. While there are no guaranteed wildlife sightings, we always see something cool in this one-of-a-kind estuary ecosystem that starts right outside the back door of our shop.

The half-day guided tour is a unique experience. After putting the kayaks in the water and leaving the port of l'Estaque, we will follow the beautiful coast of the Parc Marin de la Côte Bleue then its small coves and creeks before stopping at a small beach that is difficult to access by land for a break with swimming in transparent water. The return is a little further offshore to enjoy a panoramic view of the Côte Bleue and the bay of Marseille.

The Lofton Creek Kayak Tour is perfect for paddlers of any level, including children and beginners. It’s an intimate nature experience in which participants can expect to get up close and personal with turtles, alligators, snakes, otters, and occasionally, manatees. The terrestrial nature of the forest attracts pileated woodpeckers, red shoulder hawks, and the curious anhinga, sometimes referred to as the “water turkey.” The protected makeup of Lofton Creek means paddling here is “weather resistant” to tumultuous coastal conditions. A south-bound paddle on Lofton Creek provides picturesque marsh views, whereas a north-bound paddle is a more remote, forested experience. The Lofton Creek Kayak Tour is a guaranteed good time for everyone in your group!

We begin the tour by heading upstream from the launch. As we paddle, we will pass by a few freshwater springs, explore a scenic crystal clear creek, and we take time to snorkel/swim around a bit in the Rainbow River. At the creek, you will have the opportunity to wade in the sandy bottom creek and explore sand boils that feed spring water into the river. • Small groups, no larger than 8 people • Luxury kayak seats • Clean and unscratched clear kayak • All equipment necessary for a fun and safe kayak experience

A 2 hour kayak rental will allow you to explore the calm, clear waters between Stock Island and Key West on your own from the comfort of your single or double kayak (book per person not per kayak) Glide over sea grass and through mangrove tunnels as you look for fish, birds, sharks, rays and maybe even a manatee. Great for paddlers of all experience levels though all guests must know how to swim.
