Hi, Sweetwater Kayaks is our partner on-site that provides single or double kayak, canoe or stand up paddleboard rentals, and they also do provide tours at Weedon Island Preserve. Reservations for rentals, tours, and other information can be found on their website. (Trip Advisor won't let us link to their website here but if you type Sweetwater Kayaks into a search engine it should pop up first). Thanks for the question!

My kids kayak there a lot. The markers have been updated. Not sure about inflatable as they could get snagged. There is a nice put in area just past visitors center. There is also a kayak rental place there. Check tide charts & go. You will love it. There is open water too that is just gorgeous.
Can I take my dog here to hike on the trails? When is a good time to kayak through the mangrove tunnel?
A:
Anyone that answered doesn't read the signs.....dogs are not allowed in preserves through all of Florida. If the name has preserve behind it, no pets are allowed.
