Explore Tampa's premier attraction for bird
watching, photography, canoeing, kayaking, and family memories.
Escape to nature on a 2-hour to full day, downstream, quiet-water,
paddling adventure through a 16,000-acre wildlife preserve. In all seasons the
Hillsborough River astounds with its
beauty and abundant wildlife. From the thousands of white ibis in the fall, the
sightings of deer, wild hog, and turkey in the winter, the proliferation of
songbirds in spring, and its cooling shade on a summer's day, the Hillsborough
River brings a new surprise and delight around each bend.
Bring your sense of adventure, rent a canoe or kayak or schedule a
guided trip, and paddle through this cypress swamp full of Florida's unique
flora and fauna. Perhaps paddling close to a sunning 'gator, a threatened limpkin, 6 turtles
congregating on a log, or catching that large-mouthed bass will be the most
prized memory of your vacation. Whether this is your first-time, you are an experienced paddler, a
vacationer or a local resident, the Florida you're looking for is just a short
paddle away!
Canoe Escape is located only 12 miles from downtown
Tampa and 10 minutes from Busch Gardens. It was
founded in 1991 by the Faulk family. Canoe Escape offers both self-guided and
interpretive-guided paddling adventures. In 1997 Canoe Escape began retailing
quality canoes, kayaks, and paddling accessories. Canoe Escape has been
featured in numerous newspaper and magazine articles as well as on HGTV's "The Good Life"
and the Sunshine Network's "Sunshine Outdoors: Paddlesports".
We don't expect to be the only place you paddle, but we strive to
be your favorite!
