Loxahatchee River Trip

August 5, 2023 @ 8:30 am - 4:30 pm

THIS TRIP IS FOR VERY EXPERIENCED KAYAKERS ONLY.
If you have any questions about your fitness please message me (James) directly before signing up.
We’ll meet at Riverbend Park in Jupiter, shuttle cars to Jonathan Dickinson State Park, then drive back to Riverbend to start the 7.5-mile journey down the Loxahatchee River. The river has a couple dams that we will need to traverse. With the water levels high, however, this shouldn’t be an issue. The river is narrow and windy until it opens up closer to Jonathan Dickinson State Park. We’ll go through fresh water and brackish water on the trip, and hopefully see an abundance of wildlife!
The state park is 35 minutes away and there is an entrance fee and a parking fee, so we need to keep this in mind when shuttling vehicles. This trip is limited to 20 people to minimize the logistics of transportation.
Sometimes there is a 5K race going on at Riverbend Park. if that is the case we will launch from the outfitter parking lot right as you come into Riverbend Park.
