The Calusa Blueway Paddling Festival and Lee County Parks & Recreation welcome you.

The annual Calusa Blueway Paddling Festival is among the fastest growing paddling festivals in North America. When many places are feeling the late-autumn chill, Southwest Florida continues to provide the perfect location for canoeing, kayaking and SUPing along sugar-sand shores and Gulf waters. Join us Nov. 1 – 3, 2013 in Fort Myers-Sanibel. Enjoy 75-degree weather, companionship of fellow paddlers and newcomers to the sport, and -- of course -- activities such as demos, speakers, instruction, evening socials, a film festival & photo contest, live music, fishing tournament, races, group tours, club paddles and more.
