Activity itinerary

Ted Sperling Park

  • 2h
The mangroves off Lido Key are one of Sarasota’s most popular kayaking destinations for both locals and visitors—and for good reason. As you paddle through the winding mangrove tunnels, it feels like stepping into another world. The calm, shaded waterways create a peaceful escape where everyday worries simply fade away.

Intracoastal Waterway (Pass by)

Kayaking through the Intracoastal Waterway offers a calm, scenic paddle surrounded by Florida’s natural beauty. As you glide along the shoreline and mangroves, you’ll often spot dolphins swimming nearby and manatees gently cruising beneath the surface. It’s a peaceful, up-close way to experience the wildlife that makes Sarasota so special.
