About this experience
Our glass bottom kayaks are the clearest, most stable of it's kind on the Silver River! They come with a sit-in-top design, which means they are well suited to all-weather paddling, stability is greatly increased and paddler comfort is enhanced. Our kayaks come with a transparent hull for underwater viewing all the way to the bottom, even the deepest springs in the river!
This activity is for those who have already experienced our guided tour, are experienced paddlers and are able to navigate on their own. During this activity you'll share the water with alligators, turtles, several species of fish and birds. Our glass bottom kayaks give you the opportunity to view these "locals" in their natural habitat without ever getting into the water!
