Santa Fe River
The Santa Fe River is unique among the many found in North Florida, flowing underground in O’Leno State Park through an intricate cave system only to emerge in River Rise Preserve State Park. The best part? It is all protected for future generations so that they too can appreciate this natural wonder. Learn about the rich history of the Santa Fe River, which boasts over 36 named springs that contribute to its waters. During certain times of the year, the river itself can run clear, displaying a see-through sweet tea or amber-brown color. Our experienced guides provide fascinating information about each spring and the surrounding ecosystem as you paddle around Rum Island and the Santa Fe River. Keep an eye out for local wildlife such as fish, herons, otters, white-tail deer, swallow-tail kites, mullet, and an abundance of turtles.

5.00We had an absolutely amazing experience today! Our guide Malachai was knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly friendly throughout the entire tour. He made us feel safe, comfortable, and welcome from start to finish. His passion for the area and the wildlife was evident in every explanation, and he took the time to answer all of our questions. This was one of the highlights of our trip, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Thank you for making this adventure so memorable. We highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting the area!

5.00Terrific time. Our guide Codi was the best, amiable, helpful, knowledgeable. We went early in the day, at 8am, ahead of the crowd and before it got too hot. We'd do it that way again.
Peaceful and Fun!

5.00Our experience with Get Up and Go Kayaking was exceptional. From booking through their website to arrival, everything was seamless. Our tour guide, JP, was fantastic. We booked our tour at 11 a.m., which was perfect for avoiding the crowds. JP took my family and me on an amazing tour along the river. We are a family of three with a 5-year-old, and it was absolutely perfect—he loved it! The photos you can take throughout the tour are incredible. 100% recommended. Be sure to ask for JP—he was wonderful and truly made our experience memorable. Such a nice guy!
Everything was excellent!

5.00Codi was an amazing guide! My boyfriend and I went kayaking for my birthday and our guide Codi was so thoughtful and brought a birthday balloon to attach to the kayak. Codi was so knowledgeable and shared many facts and history with us as we kayaked through the springs. He took photos for us as well. The weather was beautiful, 70 and sunny, and perfect for kayaking in January. The water was so clear and we saw many fish, turtles, birds, armadillos, and turkeys! Would definitely recommend this tour!
