Kayaking in Florida: A New Fear Unlocked on the Water

One of my favorite weekend hobbies is kayaking in Florida, however, there’s a new fear that’s been unlocked on the water.

Ever since I moved to Fort Myers nearly 6 years ago, I took up kayaking. It’s become one of my favorite things to do. Not only is being out in the sunshine always good, but there’s something so peaceful about being on the water. I usually go by myself too, so it’s just me and the sounds of the birds chirping and waves splashing. My favorite place to go is the Estero River. I usually rent from Estero River Outfitters and head out in either direction for a paddle, which also makes for good exercise too. But I go all over the area. I also try to get out on a kayak when I take vacations to other places as well. I’ve always been comfortable on a kayak. But after hearing what happened to one Florida woman this week, a new fear has been unlocked.
