This was my first time paddle boarding and it was such a fun experience. The guide was helpful and knowledgeable. I plan to continue booking more tours in the future.

What a great time!! First...
What a great time!! First time paddle boarding and it was just perfect! location turned out to be something out of a painting just unreal, Rachelle explained everything so well that I was standing up and paddling away without any previous experience, plus she knows pretty much all the cool things and stories about the location which made the whole trip very entertaining. 10/10 great time! Enjoyed it so much I kept talking about it all day and already planning to going again!

Hi Artur! Thank you so much for the awesome review. It was such a pleasure meeting you and getting to paddle together in Winter Park! You did so well for it being your first time paddle boarding, you picked it up so quickly. We absolutely love introducing beginners to paddle boarding because it’s such an easy and amazing water sport that just about anyone can enjoy. I’m so glad you enjoyed the lakes and canals too. They really do feel like something out of a painting. I love sharing the stories and little hidden spots along the way, so it means a lot to hear that part made the experience even more special. Looking forward to paddle boarding again soon!

Truly special winter park/orlando experience
We were planning on going to the scenic boat tour but noticed that it was pontoon boats with like 16ppl or more per boat and maybe 4+ boats at a time. I wanted something a little more special and also active. So I found otter paddle and booked a guided 2hr sunset paddle board tour from the iconic craft azalea garden for me and my gf. It was sooo much fun. We saw 2 of the local lakes, cypress trees, a canal, multiple wildlife sightings including an anhinga catching a fish and a large barn owl we got maybe 10ft from. The guide was both knowledgeable and very friendly. I will be going back for this tour and probably several others by this company. Id rank this among my top 5 things to do in winter park.

Thank you so much, William, for sharing your experience with us! I’m so glad you and your girlfriend chose Otter Paddle Orlando for your sunset adventure—it was such a pleasure paddling with you both on the beautiful Winter Park Chain of Lakes.
That moment with the anhinga catching a fish and getting so close to the barn owl was truly unforgettable! I love being able to share these magical encounters with our guests, and it means so much to hear you enjoyed the experience.
I can’t wait to see you both back out on the water, whether it’s for another peaceful sunset paddle or one of our other unique tours. Thank you for your kind words and for ranking us among your top Winter Park experiences—it’s such an honor. Until next time, happy paddling!
