Archaeology Paddle - August

Time: 9:45 am til 11:45 am

Location: JILONA, 600 State Road 707 Unit B, Jupiter, Florida 33469

Description: Come learn about the archaeology of the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse Outstanding Natural Area from an aquatic perspective with Florida Public Archaeology Network - Southeast Region!

This FREE guided paddle launching from the lighthouse shore encompasses archaeological, environmental, and historical knowledge of the ONA.

The paddle will be at a casual pace with multiple stops on the way. We will be on the water for around 2 hours so bring sunscreen and water!

Bring your own Kayak or paddle board, if not you can rent them at Blueline Surfand Paddle Co. (561-744-7474) down the road or at Jupiter Outdoor Center (561-747-0063), a paddle away across the inlet.

Meet in the North parking lot of the ONA (located on the left just before going over the bridge to Jupiter Island) at 9:45 am and one of the ONA staff will let you through the Gate and you can drive in and unload kayaks on the shore.

NOTE: THIS IS NOT THE LIGHTHOUSE MUSEUM PARKING LOT, it is just a little further east on S. Beach Rd.

We will be meeting at 9:45 am in the parking lot and beginning the paddle at 10:00 am, giving us time to unload.

FPAN is co-hosting this event.
