Now is the perfect time to visit the Jupiter Outdoor Center to go kayaking or paddle boarding.
The Jupiter Outdoor Center is a great place to rent kayaks, paddleboards, and canoes. The center has two locations in Jupiter, one on Love Street directly across from the Lighthouse, and the other in Riverbend Park. Jupiter has evolved into the community it is today based largely on our amazing waterways. There is no better way to enjoy a view of what Jupiter has to offer than to rent a kayak or stand up paddleboard and venture into these pristine environments on your own adventure.
Whether exploring the inlet and lighthouse area for a quick hour-long paddle or setting off on a full-day outing with family and friends, the Jupiter Outdoor Center can get you into the watercraft of your choice and give you the proper safety gear and guidance to ensure you have a great time.
Riverbend Park
The Jupiter Outdoor Center’s location in Riverbend Park is relatively new and provides visitors with the opportunity to explore the Loxahatchee River. Named “lowchow” (turtle) and “hatchee” (river) by the Seminole Indians, the beautiful Loxahatchee River is an 8.5-mile waterway located near the cities of Jupiter and Hobe Sound. It is a National Wild and Scenic River. Portions of the River are also designated as an aquatic preserve, Outstanding Florida Water and a state park.
Paddling on the Loxahatchee ranges from very easy to moderately strenuous, depending upon your skills and the weather. You may encounter trees crisscrossing the water, sometimes making you go over, under and around obstacles.
You can either explore the river independently or book a private tour.
