Happy Ours Kayak & Canoe Outpost

Information may not be reliable

Welcome to the Forgotten Coast in the Florida Panhandle where paddling on St. Joseph Bay is unequaled. Whether you are a beginner or seasoned kayaker, a family with children, avid angler, birding enthusiast, or church group seeking an eco-spiritual outing, Happy Ours Kayak and Canoe Outpost invites you to Cape San Blas for a fun-filled experience.

Kayak Rentals

We have a large fleet of kayaks and canoes, singles and tandems, sit-on-tops and sit-ins, of all shapes and sizes to meet your individual needs and preferences. Plus a variety of accessories are available for rent in case you forget something.

Best of all, you can get right into the crystal clear water at the head of the Bay without the inconvenience of hauling or lugging your craft to the nearest shore. We offer free orientation and safety tips for newcomers so you won't feel like you've been "left up the creek without a paddle."

Guided Kayak Trips

And those who prefer a guided trip are in for a real treat! We offer eco-tours, guided snorkeling, and kayak fishing trips that have earned us a five-star rating by customers and travel editors.

During the summer scallop season, our guides will teach you where and how to harvest this delicacy. You will also find that kayaks are the best way to reach the lush grassbeds without harming our fragile eco-system. Scallop season opens early on June 19!

We are closed during the winter months from November 1 through February 28 because conditions are generally unfavorable for paddling on St. Joseph Bay. Have a blessed Christmas and a properous New Year! We hope to see you after we re-open on March 1, 2011.
