Overview

This is a half-day rental. It is not a guided tour. We are on the bay, not the Gulf. The water is much calmer. Your destination is about a mile away. John's Pass has sandbars, islands, dolphins, manatees, and more. It's a popular place to paddle. Beach your kayak or sup on the sandbar and soak up the sun. Search for the mangrove tunnel. Watch ships sail under the span and work on your tan. You don't have to meet us at a slippery public boat ramp! We have free parking and a private floating dock. Our shop called The BoatDega has snacks, drinks, and restrooms. We can set you up with a cooler and fill it with ice. You also have the option to reserve an Easy Snorkel. Swim in the shallow water by the sandbar and search for seashells.

Itinerary

THIS IS NOT A GUIDED TOUR. Start your rental from our floating dock at The BoatDega. Paddle down the canal for almost a mile and you will be at the sandbar at John's Pass. It's a popular destination. You can beach your kayak or paddleboard and hang out on the sandbar. Swim in the shallow water and hunt for seashells. We often see dolphins. You might see a manatee. There are tons of birds including ospreys, egrets, and pelicans. Search for the mangrove tunnel. There are two small mangrove islands that come together to form Eleanor Island. There is a passage between the two islands. You can hang out under the shade of the mangroves in the tunnel and capture some amazing photos.
