Excellent scenic tunnels
Today's paddle took us on an unexpected adventure since the Everglades launch is still closed. We're hoping to reach Sandfly Island from Chokoloskee this Saturday, but today, we explored the fascinating world of the salt...
The launch is at the south end of Sea Grape Drive (0.6 miles long) off US 41, about 2.5 miles east of SR29. No fee, plenty of parking, no restrooms, some picnic tables. The launch is flat, shallow, and easy into a one-mi...
This time we were meandering. We tried a new way to get into the marsh without paddling 0.4 miles down the canal, and the water was high enough to where we didn't have to port, but we were scraping the bottom. Good thing...

Head east on US 41 for 2.5 miles past SR 29 and turn right (south) on Sea Grape Drive and go 0.6 miles to the end to the launch point. From there it's a one-mile paddle down an arrow-straight canal to the southeast to th...
What a fantastic route to take. Excellent tunnel paddling. Took a group of 8 and everyone was extremely pleased. Thanks ...
We reached the Dona Drive launch just a little after 5:20 AM, and the sky was filled with stars. We paddled over plateaus of different grasses. Some grasses had long, thin blades, while others had wider, flatter blades. ...
It is light at 5:45 AM, and there isn't a lot else going on. The marsh was majestic as the sun began our paddle this morning. There may have been hundreds of pig frogs, but I only heard one as we returned to the launch. ...
Hit the marsh for a paddle this morning and stumbled upon a serene slice of paradise! The water was crystal clear after this weekend's rain, reflecting a sky bursting with stars and a nearly full moon. Talk about a perfe...
Embarked on a morning paddle with Mac, Karin, and Stan at Half Way Creek in brisk 50°F weather. The water, warmer than the morning air, gracefully released steam, resembling delicate threads of fire. Amidst the picturesq...
This trail is out Route 41 near Ochopee, just past SR 29 (Everglades City). It's a very easy launch into a one-mile-long straight canal that leads to the marked trail. The Markers HC1 thru HC7 lead south, and Markers L1 ...
Launched from the south end of Seagrape Drive into the Halfway Creek Canal, then down 0.4 miles to the entrance to the Halfway Creek Marsh Trail and then east toward the rising sun. The water level is getting lower, and ...
After last week's trip to Halfway Creek, we decided to push even farther into the area north of the loop trail. If you look at the aerial, you see several interconnected lakes. We probably could have gone farther in, but...
We were going to do NWR-4, but when we got there, the water level looked so low that we decided to go to Halfway Creek and paddle-nowhere in particular. If you look at the aerial, after the main canal ends at the first l...
It's been a while since we paddled Halfway Creek Loop, and we picked a good day with clouds, cool weather, and a good high tide that made the trip easier than usual. The trail is reasonably well marked in most areas, and...
This is the first time we have used this launch area. It's very paddler-friendly and an easy launch. A deep channel goes south or a shallow trail through the marsh. They both end at the same place. It was a little hazy t...
The launch is at the south end of Sea Grape Drive (0.6 miles long) off US 41, about 2.5 miles east of SR29. No fee, plenty of parking, no restrooms, some picnic tables. The launch is flat, shallow, and easy into a one-mi...
So we went out Wednesday, and on the way back, we passed over a large gator in shallow (2 to 3 ft) water and got pictures of him, and he never moved. So after a while, we got comfortable floating over the top of him beca...

Please read this if you plan on doing Halfway Creek to Plantation Island. Many websites describe two paddling trails here. One is called Halfway Creek, and the other is the Halfway Creek loop trail. The loop trail is ...

Mosquitoes partied at the Halfway Creek launch after a five-day deluge dumped 25 inches of rain! The familiar marsh landscape was transformed. We paddled through swaying grasses and over a crystal-clear underwater world ...
We launched from the south end of Sea Grape Drive and went 0.4 miles down the canal to the cut into the marsh, where the flow coming out was maybe the fastest we've seen. They must've had rain. The trip goes ESE reasonab...
The marsh is flooded, as you can see from the drone aerials, so you can pretty well paddle anywhere as long as you don't hit a mangrove wall. Most areas are relatively shallow, but we passed over a manatee that Duke only...
