Marco Island Kayak Tour Map

Caxambas Park & Marina

This area is surrounded by barrier islands and sand bars only accessible by kayak and paddle board. These sand bars are loaded with sand dollars, conch shells, sea urchins and other incredible sea shells that you can't find on the regular beach. While you are kayaking from sand bar to sand bar and shelling, keep your eyes peeled for playful dolphins, manatees and stingrays. The best time to visit this park is at low tide as this allows the sand bars to be fully exposed for better shelling. We recommend renting for 2-3 hours at the park. Here are driving directions - Caxambas Park, 909 Collier Ct, Marco Island, FL 34145. UPDATE: Effective 2025, the city of Marco Island has decided to BAN commercial companies from providing kayaks to you from Caxambas Park. The city of Marco Island city council is very anti-tourism. Well guess what... there's a work-around. Just pick the kayak up from us at the Capri Paddlecraft Park and we'll put it in your truck/van/SUV safely so you can enter Caxambas park and go kayaking!


Capri Paddlecraft Park

This park is loaded with beautiful mangrove tunnels! These mangrove tunnels are naturally made and fun to paddle through. We provide you with a laminated map so you can follow the trails. Once you're in the tunnels, keep you eyes peeled for mangrove tree crabs, raccoons and jumping mullet. In the open bay you may see dolphins and manatees. There are no sand bars or shelling islands here. We recommend kayaking or paddleboarding here for 2 hours. If you don't want to explore on your own, book our famous guided mangrove tunnels kayak tour. Here are driving directions - Capri Paddlecraft Park, 1295 Capri Blvd, Naples, FL 34113.
