Dunedin Causeway · Things to Do
Kayak and paddleboard rentals on the Dunedin Causeway — Caladesi Island a 15-minute paddle across protected water.
for the wedding weekend
The no-reservation outing: walk up, rent boards, and paddle the wedding party to a state-park island before lunch.
Sail Honeymoon has the best commute in Pinellas paddling: a rental stand on the Dunedin Causeway where St. Joseph Sound's shallow, protected water — twelve spoil islands, six miles of inland waterways, two state-park islands — starts at the shoreline, and Caladesi Island sits, by their own measure, only a fifteen-minute paddle away.
Kayaks and stand-up paddleboards go out seven days a week, weather and tides permitting (summer 9–6, winter 10–5), with no reservations necessary — the walk-up policy that makes it perfect for a wedding morning's spontaneous crew. The on-site High & Dry Cafe pours until sunset for the members of the party whose paddling is moral support.
