Canoe & Kayak

Beyond Sarasota County's beautiful beaches, shopping, dining and cultural amenities there is something else to make your visit special. Get a glimpse of Florida's "natural" side and its authentic beauty in our state parks.

Sarasota’s abundant beaches, coves, bays, and creeks, are the perfect place to hop on a stand up paddleboard (SUP). Meander silently and slowly, like an ocean-dwelling ninja, so the fish don’t dart, the birds don’t fly, and the sea mammals come say hi.
