KAYAKS
Explore the sheltered waters of Jug Creek and The Back Bay. These are marvelous waters to enjoy the fun of kayaking among our local inhabitants, Dolphin and Manatee, while at the same time watching for Bald Eagles, Osprey, and our two species of Pelican, to name a few.
The inn has a double and 2 single kayaks for your enjoyment.
Experienced kayak guides are available, should you choose to have an escorted adventure.
GOLF CARTS AND BICYCLES
Slow the pace and explore the neighborhood on slow-moving wheels. Walking or riding will bring you to local restaurants and a picturesque marina just around the corner from the Inn.
Walking in serenity, hand-in-hand, is certainly never discouraged.
We at the Bokeelia Tarpon Inn have always understood that one of the greatest attractions for the fisherman is the setting. The opportunity to lose oneself in the quiet beauty of nature is surely one of the sport's greatest appeals.
The Inn has a 300-foot fishing pier which is free to our guests 24 hours a day, with bait and tackle available.. It’s also one of the best spots to watch the sunset in the evening.
You can enjoy a day on the water with ease with our own boat ramp and docks: Trailer your boat or sail it into our docks, be assured we will take care of you. Our sheltered boat docks, fitted with lifts, can accommodate boats to 24 feet. Our harbor dock, fitted with water and power, can accommodate vessels to 45 feet.
Should you choose to rent a boat we are right around the corner from Four Winds Marina, or we have many friends who are professional fishing guides who will be happy to take you for a fantastic day on the water.
Pine Island Sound, Boca Grande Pass, and the Gulf of Mexico can be reached by boat in 15 minutes or less. The fishing opportunities are almost unlimited.
