Viewing coastal architecture via kayak is an ideal way to experience what can’t be seen from the street. North Siesta Key paddlers will get views of select Sarasota School Houses: Twitchell & Rudolph’s Revere Quality House 1948 and Healy Guest House 1950 (“Cocoon House”); Rudolph’s Cohen Residence 1955; Carl Abbott’s Dolphin House 1997; Butterfield Lagoon Residence 2015; Guy Peterson’s SRQ Residence 2021; HIVE Architect’s Shibusa 2020. Commentary from a nature guide complements the guided architectural narrative.

Each tour runs approximately 2 hours.

Requires previous kayaking experience.  Not advised for those with health conditions; no children under 6.
