ECO Tour by paddleboard
We will paddle the park and view mangrove lined shore and seagrass beds. The shoreline and waters attract park wildlife and many species, including roseate spoonbills, ospreys, otters, bottle nosed dolphins and manatees. There are over 200 species of fish to see and over a dozen species of birds. Our paddle will take approximately 2-2.5 hours and will be at a medium pace to accommodate all paddlers. Water shoes, sunscreen and hydration are recommended.
Free to join with your own board, $25 to rent.

The park is on Double Branch Road, just east of the intersection of Race Track Road and W Hillsborough Avenue. As you turn onto Double Branch Road, you will see the sign for Upper Tampa Bay Park, continue straight down until you reach the park entrance on your right. Follow the road around and park at the canoe launch area.
