About River Wild Kayaking

River Wild Kayaking offers guided kayak tours on the Anclote River in Tarpon Springs, where paddlers launch near the historic Sponge Docks and navigate through shallow mangroves alongside expert guides. The company operates multiple daily tour times to accommodate different schedules. Standard eco tours explore the river's ecosystems and wildlife in their natural habitat. Sunset tours emphasize evening bird activity and bat colonies leaving their nests. A manatee and history tour combines paddling past Victorian homes and the historic sponge docks with opportunities to observe manatees in the springs, while guides explain local Greek village history and wildlife protection laws. A haunted tour offers night paddling through the mangroves focused on local historical legends. Single and tandem kayaks are available. River Wild Kayaking employs nature lovers and marine experts who share knowledge about coastal Florida's ecosystems and conservation. Tickets are sold online through the venue's website.
