Lake Underhill is 3 miles east of Downtown Orlando, bisected by the 408 Toll Road. Or as us old timers call it, the East West Expressway. I had never paddled it. I was nearby, getting an eye exam, so I paddled it.
On the water from Lake Underhill Park at 11:50.

This was a windy, urban paddle. Toll Road and airport. Orlando Executive.

Coot and glossy ibis
F-4 at Joe Kittinger Park. The Orlando native flew them in Vietnam. He is better known for jumping out of a ballon in the stratosphere in 1960. It was the longest free fall for half a century.
Downtown Orlando
Landed at 1:50. Just an hour on the water.
Went for a bike ride. A path goes from Lake Underhill Park to Colonial Drive.
Passes Orlando Executive Airport.
The bike path is on the south shore of Lake Underhill. On the north, a promanade attached to the toll road. Bike riding is not allowed.

About Me
- Dave
- I bought a used kayak in March, 2005 and began sending tales of trips to friends and family. That November, generous friends bought me a camera, Canon Powershot 400, so pictures were added to the tales. January 2007, I was able to add underwater photography, thanks to one of my brothers. I am now on my sixth camera. As of May, 2014, I have a Powershot 115 IS. When I began kayaking in 2005, I would search the Internet for paddling information, trip reports, and practical advice. I hope this site adds to your knowledge and enjoyment. My home in Winter Park, FL,north of Orlando,allows easy access to both coasts and all the spring fed rivers in between. Many Tales are day trips. No overnight stay required. I welcome your comments and will try to respond to any questions you may have. If you are in, or plan to visit Key West, call my brother, Andy Cannon, at 305-879-0862. If it floats, flies, fishes, swims, scubas, snorkels or sails, Andy can arrange your tour, rental or self-guided adventure. Happy Paddling!
