    Booking with otter paddle has shown me parts of Fl I wouldn’t have been able to see and enjoy alone. Craig and Rachelle are positive, friendly, and knowledgeable and it so nice to see their passion for nature and outdoors. They truly go above and beyond for their guests and make each trip memorable. I have loved booking with them and will book again. Looking forward to my next springs paddle!! Thank you for such an amazing experience and photos!

    We had THE BEST time Rachelle and Craig paddle boarding at Silver Springs and Rainbow Springs. They were so down to earth I almost forgot I was on a tour and felt like we were just hanging with friends. They were so knowledgeable about the areas and it really shows how much they love what they do. They even took great pics and videos too! The paddle boards were very nice and comfy. Both trips were so relaxing and beautiful and I can’t wait to schedule another trip with them soon! Highly recommend!

Our Host and guide for the day Carol was not only accommodating and professional she was personable and very knowledgeable about the area. She explained everything throughly and made sure we were comfortable before heading out on the river. Highly recommended! We will be back for sure!

    The trip was amazing. Rachelle is very kind and patient. She offered plenty of one on one instruction which is prefect for a beginner like me. We went for a walk and swim in a small creek at rainbow spring. The water is crystal clear and beautiful. I enjoyed swimming with the fishes. Rachelle give us time to explore, take a lot of photos for us and even let us try out the underwater motor. It is a unique experience

    Amazing experience with very knowledgeable and friendly Rochelle with Otter Paddle company. The 2.5 hours went by very quickly and glad we did the 8AM option before the crowds showed up after 10AM or so. All the different colors and vast wildlife was so nice to see and if Rochelle was not with us to guide various things to see we would of missed many nice experiences. Great pictures and video from the team too! thank you :)

    What to expect

    Rainbow Springs is one of the most beautiful natural springs in Florida and a true tropical paradise. Famous for its vibrant turquoise, crystal-clear water, the spring stays a refreshing 72 degrees year-round. Perfect for paddling, swimming, or simply laying back on your paddleboard and soaking up the Florida sunshine. During our adventure, we’ll explore a beautiful spring-fed creek that feels like a hidden paradise. This shallow, crystal-clear waterway is surrounded by a lush tropical canopy, creating a peaceful escape and a fun place for little ones to hop off the board and splash in the refreshing spring water. As we paddle along the river, you’ll glide over incredible visibility where fish and turtles move through the clear spring water below. You may even spot scuba divers exploring the spring vents beneath the surface. Rainbow Springs is also home to incredible wildlife, and we often see river otters, turtles, fish, and beautiful Florida birds along the way. This unforgettable experience is the perfect way to explore one of Florida’s most iconic springs and enjoy the beauty of this incredible natural paradise.
