What Makes Us the Best?

This isn’t our job, it’s our passion! We’re not just another rental gig; we’re one of the largest SUP shops in the Keys, sponsor/host paddlesport races and local charitable events, and have actively helped grow the local paddlesport community for over a decade. Our doors opened in 2012, making us the oldest paddle sport operator in Tavernier, and we’re the highest-rated for a reason. Owner, Deven Carrier, is a life-long Florida Keys local and competitive paddle board racer. His passion for the sport carries over to everyone who walks through the doors! .

Making Your Vacations Memorable with PADDLE! The Florida Keys

Small group, relaxed and very informative

The location was easy to find and plenty of parking, the cost was adequate and having a small group meant more time for questions and customized experience. The trip started with a small safety briefing, then we moved on to tips for better and more efficient kayaking. Throughout the entire trip the guide looked out and pointed out wild life, while providing lots of information about the area, culture and environment. I highly recommend "Paddle the Florida Keys"

Such a Wonderful Place and People!

This is the only place to properly PADDLE! the Florida Keys! Don't be fooled by impostors. Deven and his crew are the best. I've been out with them on the monthly locals night when their generosity benefits local non-profits. You just know when you walk in that this is much more than a business. These folks are there to make sure you have a great time and they are very good at it.

Great place, friendly helpful staff and a on-the-water nature adventure

We went to the Paddle! the Florida Keys and rented paddleboards. Based upon the advice of the staff, we went down a long narrow channel in the ocean that eventually opened into a large lagoon. Very peaceful and getting through the mangroves was tricky at times, but made it all the more enjoyable tackling the challenge. Afterwards we went to a small island about 400 yards offshore that had a swing and hammock. Overall a very enjoyable experience.

A Most Excellent Adventure!

Keith guided us on the 2 hour eco tour and we had a fantastic time. Keith is knowledgeable about the various local ecology, including the numerous fish and crabs we encountered on our mangrove trip. It was one of the highlights of our vacation and is a must for anyone looking to get outside and unplugged. All the folks at Paddle the Florida Keys were awesome, and Keith absolutely ROCKS! Thanks for a great time.
