Welcome to the West Florida Canoe and Kayak Club Web site.

Our club provides informative programs, certified instruction and, most importantly, wonderful trips to some of our region’s beautiful rivers, creeks, bayous and bays.Our club meetings are held in Pensacola, Florida and our paddling trips are generally in northwest Florida, southern Alabama and southern Missisippi.

Our Club’s Constitution and ByLaws provides further explanation of our club’s purpose and the responsibilities of members and officers.

Northwest Florida is a destination for paddlers from around the world. We are fortunate to call this region home.

This Web site provides information on upcoming activities, trips and meetings.  Our photo gallery helps us to show off the scenic beauty of our waterways as well as the native wildlife.  Read the past trip reports to learn about some of our most recent outings. An archive of past trip reports is also available.

You can also find contact information if you are interested in joining us, either as a guest on one of our outings, or as a member. A membership application can be found on the site as well. We would enjoy having you paddle with us.

Keep in mind that paddling, or any water related activity, is inherently dangerous. Our club encourages safety above all else. If you are uncertain of your paddling ability, it is recommended that you participate in an American Canoe Association class.  In addition, our trips are rated based on the level of skills necessary. Due to fluctuating water levels, hazards or unexpected pull-overs, even easy trips may prove challenging for inexperienced paddlers. 

Visit this site often to keep up-to-date on club activities.
