Welcome to the updated and upgraded Great Calusa Blueway Paddling Trail website. Since our marked and meandering trail was blazed in 2003, it has expanded to its now 190-mile self, beckoning you and your family and friends to explore.

[imagefield:right:1]Mangrove tunnels look like a place the lovable, green Shrek might make his winter home. Open bays offer buildingless horizons only minutes from your doorstep. Winding creeks get you up close and personal with Mother Nature.

Our trail is accessible to you in this virtual world as well. The new website allows you to customize your trip before you arrive at the water’s edge. Find practical information as well as fodder for dreams of the day your toes will wiggle in gentle waves and you lower yourself into that kayak to paddle off into paradise.
