How To Kayak Amelia Island Safely And Enjoyably

By Jessica Turner


Being out on the water in a kayak can be a fun and exciting experience. If you are planning to kayak Amelia Island, here are some tips and tricks that you can use to make sure you do so safely and have the maximum amount of fun doing so.

A location like Amelia Island is a great place to try kayak touring. There are different activities you can participate in both on the water and off of it. An island like this one is not massive so it is possible to tour around it even if you are not able to travel far in a day. You may want to factor in details such as this when deciding where you want your kayak tour to take place.

Making a few basic decisions about what you want to accomplish in your kayak will help you enjoy your tour more. For example, if you want to get a good look at the animals, birds and plants that call this area home you need to ensure that your tour includes this. If you want to simply see some beautiful scenery, a different type of tour might suit you best.

Keep in mind that some trips may not be best suited for individuals who do not have a lot of paddling experience. There are certain parts of the island that are more affected by tides and currents than others. Beginning paddlers may want to look at areas that are more inland such as rivers and creeks. Speaking with a tour company that specializes in paddling adventures may help ensure you have a positive experience when out on the water.

A tour that includes lessons on how to paddle and work with different water conditions may be a good idea for a beginner as well. This way if something happens while you are out on the water you will have the ability to react properly and stay safe no matter what the weather throws at you.

Traveling to this area is not difficult but it may be more expensive if you are trying to bring your own kayak with you. Picking a tour company that will supply you with a boat is a good idea. If you do need to reserve a boat to paddle, you may want to make sure that you book your trip as soon as possible so that you know they have equipment for you to use.

You will often find that there is more than one paddling company that you can work with. If you are trying to decide which company you will travel with, review websites may be very helpful. Once you have your options narrowed down to a few different outfitters, finding out what they offer specifically may be the final step to choosing the company that is right for you.

Once you have found a tour that you want to go on and are out on the water you may be amazed at how fun and relaxing it is to paddle a kayak. Take your time and don't forget to look around you so that you can watch the beautiful scenery and amazing wildlife slide past your boat.
