Crystal River Paddle, May 10-14
Crystal River offers a wonderful paddling experience, where you can encounter manatees in their natural habitat. You can explore the Kings Bay area for two days at a relaxed pace, enjoying the scenic views and wildlife. This paddling trip is part of the cruising group's boating adventure to Crystal River. We have reserved four days for this activity, so that both weekend and weekday paddlers can join us. However, be aware that the weekends are very crowded. You can choose to paddle for one or more days, depending on your availability and preference.
Four providers are contracted with the city to launch at Kings Bay park:
Please register for the event by clicking on the Blue Register Button so that we have an approximate headcount.
Please join the Group Me DBC Paddling Group discussions, where we will share more details about the event. I would like to know which days you are attending, and whether you are staying overnight.
We will also arrange a group dinner/late lunch at some Crystal River restaurants on a few nights.
Some people have indicated that they want to stay overnight and are curious if others do too. If not already signed up; directions for Group Me can be found here. Dunedin Boat Club - Paddling Group - Group Me Communication.
