Canoe Rentals

Experience canoeing at Blackwater Joe’s as one of the most relaxing and memorable outdoor adventures in Northwest Florida. Launch directly from our private riverside property in Milton, Florida, and glide along the calm, tea-colored waters of the Blackwater River. Surrounded by towering pines, quiet forest bends, and sugar-white sandbars, this peaceful paddle offers a perfect balance of adventure and serenity for both first-time paddlers and experienced explorers.

Discover what makes this river journey truly special as you travel through one of Florida’s last untouched river systems within the Blackwater River State Forest. With the northernmost canoe access point on the river, Blackwater Joe’s gives you more time on the water and less effort getting started. Our easy private launch and smooth shuttle process allow you to focus on enjoying the scenery, spotting wildlife like herons, relaxing with family, or stopping along scenic sandbars for a swim or snack in nature.
