The Blackwater Paddler's Guide: Florida Edition

The Florida water we have paddled, and the rivers Florida's own paddling trails, parks and forests recommend, from the Suwannee to the Everglades.

Cover of The Blackwater Paddler's Guide, Florida Edition

Four of these rivers Tina and I have paddled, filmed and camped on ourselves: the Florida Suwannee, the Alapaha, the north Florida Withlacoochee and the St. Marys, our home river on the state line. Those chapters carry our own field notes and trip plans. The rest we have not run yet. We did not want to guess at them, so every one of those pages comes from the people who look after that water, and it says who.

  • 4 rivers paddled by Blackwater Outdoor Journeys in Florida, with field notes, trip plans and the films
  • 17 more recommended by Florida's designated paddling trails, state parks, forests and the Park Service
  • 18 more Florida rivers, creeks and coastal trails, in shorter entries
  • Every gauge, ramp, mileage and permit fact names its source
  • Each river page sends you to the Camping Wilderness Skills app for the live water level
