The J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge has five miles of nature trails, but to get even closer to the wildlife, you can rent a canoe or take a tour of the refuge from Tarpon Bay Recreation. An open-air tram tour with a naturalist costs $8, or $4 for children. A small tour (limit four) in a canoe with a naturalist costs $35 and lasts for 2.5 hours. They also rent and sell canoes and kayaks for self-guided tours, bicycles, canoes with motors for fishing, and fishing rods and reels.
