Coastal Areas (Gulf of Mexico)
Coast into Exceptional Paddling
Bring your passion for paddling to Citrus County's Gulf coast, and you will be rewarded with one of Florida's most unique ecosystems. The convergence of our spring-fed freshwater rivers with the saltwater of the Gulf of Mexico creates estuaries and salt marshes brimming with life and ideal for canoeing and kayaking. These areas are typically shallow, with endless opportunities for exploration in the small aquatic pockets and pathways that appear where rivers and marsh meet the Gulf. Be sure to bring along a reliable GPS unit or map—islands covered with sawgrass and mangroves look very much alike.
Porpoise, fish and many species of birds are common in these areas.
