Where Kayking Fun Begins
Mark Bullington
Owner & Tour Guide
For years Mark has guided canoe and kayak adventures, logging over 7,000 +++ miles including overnight and day trips. With knowledge of trees, birds, and wildlife, he will help you have a fun and informative tour. We think Mark would be out paddling every day, even if no one showed up! So, come and let him share his passion for paddling in the great outdoors. This is where kayaking fun begins.
“Anyone can float down or camp on a river – but discovering how to live life while enjoying the passion of adventure, taking risks, and experiencing peace is a life well lived.” -the Saltwater Cowboy

Tour Guide
Our son has spent most of his life on outdoor adventures, and is certified through the University of Florida as a Florida Master Naturalist. He served as Vice President and President of the Northeast Florida Master Naturalist Chapter. Second to his dad in miles logged paddling the beautiful waters in Florida and Georgia, he is always one to do all he can to accommodate and make one’s experience fun and easy. He loves to combine kayaking and fishing.
“As a lover of the outdoors and physical activity, becoming a part of my family’s business was a “no brainer”. I explore nature every day! As a Guide I regularly get to share nature and all of its wonders with our guests, so when the opportunity to learn more about this fascinating state became available, it was also a “no brainer”!
By completing all three core modules of the Florida Master Naturalist Program (FMNP) through UF/IFAS, I explored and learned about the state of Florida from the Gulf Coast to the Atlantic Coast, from the smallest coastal invertebrates to the largest uplands mammals, and everything in between! Along the way I met some amazing people who have proven to be a support group of knowledge with a passion for educating. This program enhanced my knowledge of the outdoors, and it has opened an exciting new perspective of this beautiful creation for me. I look forward to sharing it with others. So, now that I am a certified Master Naturalist… Go ahead, ask me anything!!”??
“I was also nominated and served at Vice President and President for the NorthEast Florida Master Naturalist Chapter. It was an honor for me to have the opportunity to meet the man who started it all, Dr. Mary Main!”

Tour Guide
Our daughter has been involved for years with kayaking and outdoor adventures. Her laid-back paddling style, with legs dangling over the side of the boat and drinking a smoothie, is sure to make even the most apprehensive person feel relaxed. Her motto is, “dream big and celebrate always.” She is also our #1 photographer and has made very impressive slide presentations of some of our kayak adventures. She enjoys serving on the Nassau County Chamber of Commerce’s Board of Directors, and we congratulate her on winning The Nassau County Chamber of Commerce Ambassador of the Year award.
“Everytime I am out on the water, it feels as if time stands still, and there is always something new to discover. Hope to see you out on the water!
Favorite quotes: “Dream Big and Celebrate Always” & “Life is a Special Occasion”! ~Amber
