Family fun at its best!Paddleboard or kayak through the mangroves of Lamar Lake.See the picturesque downtown Miami skyline from the waterSafely navigate the waters in and around the Biscayne Bay Aquatic PreserveGet a chance to see manatees close up in one of the best manatee-spotting sites in Florida!

About this experience

Lamar Lake is Miami's #1 location for manatee sightings during the region's manatee season between November and April each year. Outside of manatee season there are a number of other wildlife sightings common on our tours including dolphins, spotted eagle rays, great blue herons and a plethora of other local flora and fauna.

TRiding on PADL's quality equipment, paddlers take in Miami's unique mix of natural and urban scenes including, weather permitting, Downtown Miami's iconic skyline as seen from Biscayne Bay.
