Tsala Apopka Lake Chain
Many Waters, Endless Paddling Opportunities

Tsala Apopka is a Native American name meaning “many waters,” and the description is apt: This large body of water is composed of about 50 small lakes, many unnamed, that together form an expansive “chain.” Tsala Apopka is a natural lake chain, with only a few man-made boat trails and canals. There are dozens of islands, hundreds of miles of shorelines and many “finger lakes” that wind for miles and are perfect for paddling. The waters are a slight tea color from tannin and range from 1’ to 15’ deep.

Whichever of these many waters you choose to explore, you are sure to have an enjoyable experience in this one-of-a-kind setting.
