Overview

The tour starts at KP Hole Park with a short instruction session on basic paddle techniques and an introduction to the local wildlife and waterways. Participants then paddle in small groups of up to 10 people using 100% clear glass-bottom kayaks, which provide a view of the water and aquatic life beneath the kayak. The guided eco tour lasts about two to two and a half hours, depending on the group’s pace and wildlife sightings. The route passes through Rainbow Springs State Park, where paddlers see ornamental gardens, man-made waterfalls, and hills shaped by the area’s mining history. The tour continues along the Rainbow River, known for its clear waters, offering chances to observe over fourteen types of birds, fish, turtles, otters, alligators, and other wildlife. There are several stops along the way for photos and wildlife viewing, and at some points, participants can leave their kayaks to enjoy the spring water directly. Life vests and paddles are provided. Weight limits apply to the kayaks, with a maximum of 425 pounds per boat and 250 pounds per seat. Children must be accompanied by an adult while paddling. The tour ends back at KP Hole Park.
