Paddlers we need your help!
There is a
movement to register canoes and kayaks like boats in Florida. This will
put extreme economic stress on all outfitters including your favorite,
Canoe Outpost. Please click on the button below for
more info and to have your name and/or your company's name added to our
"Take a Stand" list.

Worried about gators? Click the
gator above for information on gators in the wild. We have never had a
problem on the Peace River. People swim and fossil hunt in the water all
the time. Just be careful and look around first. Yes, it is gator
mating season. Don't try to breed with one because they don't like it!
Keep the gators away with "gator beads". Folks are swearing they help. Get
your gator shaped Mardi Gras beads at the check-in desk.
- Paddle
the Peace River with Canoe Outpost and enjoy a quiet, peaceful float
along Florida's most popular State Canoe Trail. The beautiful Peace
River offers
wildlife viewing, fishing, swimming, hiking trails, wilderness camping,
fossil hunting, and of course, canoeing and kayaking. View towering
cypress trees with moss beards and soaring birds, hear the rippling water,
and the meaning of the true Florida becomes apparent. Be transported back
to the days of the Indians and first explorers as you explore this piece
of Florida from days past.
- For the novice or experienced paddler, the Peace offers something for all. Wilderness
half-day, full-day, and overnight camping trips from two to eight days. Close to the
center of the State, Canoe Outpost-Peace River, 2 miles west of Arcadia, is just a short drive
from Orlando, Tampa, the Miami/Ft. Lauderdale area, Naples, Sarasota, Bradenton, and
Ft. Myers Beach & Sanibel. Come find a little peace and become a
Peace
Paddler!
