    I love west lake. Several things to remember:
    No see ums can be severe here bring spray and layers!
    Dry-land is a commodity here, mostly mangroves. Be prepared to search for a picnic spot.
    If you launch from harbor Towne marina, the main channel is high traffic and the sides have large jagged rocks just under the water, maneuver carefully.
    This is the largest ecosystem of its kind in the area, enjoy it!!

      Thanks! I've not been out much lately though, but that's about to change. I'm gearing up for a pretty big adventure in a couple weeks, I can't wait! Always an honor to have you watching my videos, I appreciate it!

    Beautiful shots of the mangrove. Thank you!!! Any other local kayaking areas in the south Florida regions of Miami and Broward? I am new to kayaking, still waiting on my kayak to be delivered.

      Oleta River State Park is a place I've had my eye on for a while that looks like a lot of fun. Thanks for watching, and I hope you enjoy the new kayak!

      I've seen a Croc one day about an 8 footer. Well mannered creature. Kept his distance. And I respected his. As I write this I'm sitting on the bench close to the water. Just across from the kayak rentals. A splendid place indeed. West Lake Park

    I go kayaking there often. This area does not allow gas motors. No annoying jetskis to ruin your adventure: )

    • @NowThisIsFlorida
      @NowThisIsFlorida  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Exactly right, I should have mentioned that in the video. You'd have to venture out into the Intracoastal Waterway to encounter any gas powered watercraft like I did.

    I find this to be scary in the sense of the water and what's in it ?

    • @NowThisIsFlorida
      @NowThisIsFlorida  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I've seen different types of gar and also some puffer fish, but this does connect to the intracoastal so when you think about it, anything from the ocean can make it in there.
