Kayaking

Key Largo Cottages -Kayaking

You can enjoy our free kayaks and kayak to a nearby sunken boat, a deserted island, or head to the mangroves with cool canals, iguanas hanging in the trees above you, manatees and 120 pound tarpon fishes below you. Also just to the north of us you can kayak up to one of our local Watering Holes with a RESTAURANT on top of it.

If your kayaking thirst is for something more enduring and you are in shape to kayak 2 miles each way, (most guests sail towing kayaks) check out Key Largo Cottages’ Mangrove Jungle Tour!

This is a self guided kayaking/sailing adventure that you, your family, and friends will love (we provide the charts and local knowledge). The Mangrove Jungle Tour consists of sailing or kayaking a few miles into the Everglades (we also teach sailing). Then if you sailed, anchor your boat, jump into your kayaks, and start kayaking into the canopy maze of mangroves abundant with tropical birds, reptiles, and more (no alligators that we know of…). Explore the water trails that will lead you into a secret Indian spot called the “Hidden Lake” where the Florida manatees can be found.
