Join Park Rangers at Camp Helen State Park for a moonlight paddle on Lake Powell, Florida’s largest coastal dune lake. Advanced reservations are required to participate and can be done by calling Camp Helen State Park at (850) 233-5059.

Friday, Sept. 9 | 7:30pm to 9:00pm CDT
Saturday, Sept. 10 | 7:30pm to 9:00pm CDT

Program is $30 per person, cash only. Fee includes watercraft rental, life jacket, paddle, park admission fee, and a donation to the Friends of Camp Helen State Park. Watercraft and gear from outside the park are not permitted. Space is limited.

The experience will be a mostly quiet excursion led by Rangers and will give visitors a unique opportunity to view one of the rarest lakes in the world, while under a nearly full moon.

The trip is approximately 1.5 hours and will begin with a brief safety review and interpretation on Lake Powell and why coastal dune lakes are such a rare natural phenomenon. Participants must be experienced paddlers and 12 years of age or older.

Follow Friends of Camp Helen State Park on Facebook for updates on park events.

Camp Helen State Park is located at 23937 Panama City Beach Parkway, just west of the Phillips Inlet Bridge on the Bay County and Walton County line.
