Paddleheads since 1993, the SW Florida Paddling Club is a group of friends who enjoy paddling together, we plan several kayak trips each month around Lee and Collier Counties: Cape Coral, Matlacha, Pine Island, Fort Myers, Sanibel, Estero, Bonita Springs, Naples, Everglades City, Goodland, Ten Thousand Islands. This is a picture of Lakes Regional Park, Fort Myers. A great place to paddle early am or late pm.

All are welcome to our meetings and our trips. Want to join us on a paddle? Call the trip coordinator so they know how many paddlers are coming, get trip details (length, conditions, recommended gear).
