Everglades National Park - Hell's Bay Canoe Trail Boat Ramp

Hell's Bay Canoe Trail offers a 5. 5-mile paddling loop accessible directly from State Highway 9336 near Flamingo, featuring a sheltered route marked with over 160 numbered poles that winds through mangrove creeks and ponds to backcountry chickee campsites.

The trail is non-motorized and requires careful navigation through narrow, maze-like passages; paddlers should be prepared for challenging conditions and plan 4-8 hours for the route.

Canoes and kayaks can be rented at the nearby Flamingo Marina, and overnight camping permits are available at the Flamingo Visitor Center (reservable up to one day in advance).
