Paddleboard and Kayak in Southwest Florida with SUP Englewood

Paddle board and kayak rentals and tours

We offer customized options in Englewood for paddle boarding and kayaking guided eco tours.

The water clarity is better due to more water exchange from the Gulf of Mexico to Sarasota Bay. The marine life is more abundant. This location offers a pristine combination of Stump Pass and Don Pedro without the boating traffic. For those of you who have paddled with SUP Englewood know that the boating traffic is a hazard at these Englewood locations. The Ted Sperling Nature Park at South Lido is designed for paddle boards and kayaks. There is literally NO BOATING TRAFFIC in the paddling area!! I was so amazed at this location when I paddled it for the first time.

Many of you may be wondering what it’s like and might have heard that it’s a crowded location. It is a nature park filled with people that want to have a great time on the water. This location is organized and fully regulated by Sarasota County Parks and Recreation. There are also new changes that will allow vendors to take payments at this Sarasota County Park. I encourage you to join us on this new venture and explore Sarasota Bay with me. Please view our Sarasota Kayak Tours and check out our new company name Seashore Eco Tours.
