About this place
Kayak up and down some of Florida's clearest water. Complete with sharp turns, swift currents, and wildlife at every corner. There's a swimming hole with a jumping pad from a tree. Take your adventure to the next level and kayak downstream 10 miles from King's Landing to Wekiva Springs. You will be immersed into ever changing scenery full of turtles, alligators, and birds.
Start at King's Landing. Here you can either drop your own kayaks in or choose to rent. Kayak/Canoe rentals are $30 for the day. Using your own kayak is $20, if you choose to have them pick you up at Wekiva Springs and shuttle you back. During summer months, get there early (before 11), as they typically sell out. Head upstream to the right first. This is Extreme Emerald Cut, which was easily the best part of the trip. The hard row 1 mile upstream through tight curves is worth every second. Make sure to hit up the swimming hole. Heading back downstream, you will hit some crowds for the first half mile or so. But don't worry, they thin out quickly. I fully recommend doing the entire 10 miles. Make sure you give yourself 4-5 hours to complete the trip (more if you want to stop halfway and have a lunch/nap time). The shuttle will pick you and your boat up at 4pm in Wekiva Springs.
