    During this 5 hour paddle tour, you will have the opportunity to get up close and personal with the unique natural environments of the Okefenokee Swamp. Expert guides will lead us through the wilderness as we explore the many channels and lakes, stopping to admire the plants and animals that call this ecosystem home.

    A variety of sandwiches (including vegetarian options), chips, and dessert will be provided. Canoes and kayaks will also be provided. Please bring a good size water bottle. This trip is weather dependent and we will send out updates as we get closer to the date.
