Eco Tour Overview

Just a short distance from PCB or 30A, inside Holmes Creek, rests one of the most beautiful cold springs in Florida known as Cypress Spring. To reach the spring, which is only accessible by boat, you get your choice of kayak, canoe or paddle board. It's just a short paddle on Holmes Creek (15-20 minutes) with our fun and informative guides. Once at the spring enjoy the view from your beach chair or jump in and explore the spring with one of our SeaDoo Underwater Scooters and mask & snorkel. Everything that you'll need for the day is provided; including beach chairs, towels, mask & snorkel, lunch, drinks, sunscreen, GoPros, and SeaDoo Underwater scooters.

Surrounded by woods you can hear the call of birds, such as heron, ibis, woodpeckers, warblers, cardinals, blue jays, mockingbirds, hawks, eagles, owls, and vultures, while you are paddling or enjoying a number of different activities. Get in touch with nature and with some of the wonderful animals who live in Cypress Spring and Holmes Creek.

Snorkeling with an Underwater Scooter


Underwater Scooters RentalsUnlike the ocean, the beach at Cypress Springs is free of rip tides. This allows you an easier time if you decide to venture under the surface of the spring. Like the beaches of Northwest Florida the water at Cypress Springs stays shallow around the shore and gradually gets deeper until you reach the middle where there's a drop off and the water reaches a depth of about 23 feet. So there's something to explore for people with all comfort levels. The underwater scooters will make navigation a breeze and you will be able to enjoy yourself more while you’re submerged in your adventure.
