What are the best springs to kayak in Florida?
Rainbow Springs State Park and the Rainbow River have the clearest spring water in all of Florida. These springs are ideal for kayaking, paddle boarding and canoeing but also offer tube rentals for a lazy river floating excursion. Some of the more popular areas in Central Florida that aren’t occupied by alligators or sharks are freshwater spring-fed rivers. Some of these may include: Ichetucknee Springs, Madison Blue Spring, Withlacoochee, and Big Bend Saltwater Paddling Trail.
Do kayaks flip over easily?
Kayaks are designed with a low center of gravity and a broad base, making them exceptionally stable and difficult to tip over. While most of the focus is on your upper body, your lower body is used just as much. That’s because you use your legs to apply the needed pressure to keep you balanced on the kayak. Also, when you are trying to turn or maneuver, you’ll tighten and loosen your leg muscles countless times.
