| One of the
most popular recreational activities on the Sante Fe River is boating,
whether it be with a canoe, kayak or fishing boat. We first stopped off at the Santa Fe Canoe Outpost to ask where we could launch our Sevylor Tahiti K79 Classic inflatable kayak. They directed us to the High Springs Boat Ramp where we quickly discovered that the kayak had a leaky valve. So we instead went back to Santa Fe Canoe Outpost and rented one of their canoes and two paddles for the day. Santa Fe Canoe Outpost is located at 2025 NW Santa Fe Blvd, High Springs, FL 32643. To reach the staff by phone, call (386) 454-2050. |

| The highlight of the experience was seeing the abundance of wildlife that resides in or near the Santa Fe River including Florida Cooter turtles, Great Blue Herons, Florida Alligators, and various other birds. | ||
