15 min by car. Downstream launch location near Rogers park. I like this rental location because you get more time on the kayaks and can see more of the river than the state kayak launch. This location starts you off at the bottom of the river and you can paddle as far upstream or downstream as you like.
*This location does not offer transportation. You must paddle back to the launch location to return.

🐒 (monkey island is currently under renovation 2023) Spider monkeys are the current inhabitants of Monkey Island, a tiny chunk of land sitting in the Homosassa River. Customers dining at the Homosassa Riverside Resort or hanging out at the Monkey Bar enjoy ringside seats to sometimes wild offshore antics. Monkeys climb on platforms, swing from ropes, and clamber around the base of a small replica lighthouse.
Tip: If your visiting Crumps or the Freezer in Crystal river you can catch a water taxi around the island for a couple bucks to get a close up.

The Flats! It’s a sandbar located right outside the canal system in Hernando Beach. Only accessible by boat. All you have to do is navigate the canals and follow the channel markers until you reach marker 25 (which is one of the easiest spots to get into the flats), at which point you will take a right. You can’t miss it; you’ll see many boaters enjoying the shallow waters at any given time. Once you reach the Flats, you’ll find that the water is between 2 – 4 feet deep (depending on the tide), making it perfect for kayaking, paddleboarding, hanging out in your boat, or just exploring.
