Get Up And Go Kayaking – Tampa Bay Launches New Clear Kayak & Beach Yoga Tours at Shell Key Preserve
Guided paddle + grounding yoga flow bring movement, mindfulness, and Gulf Coast magic together.
TAMPA BAY, FL | December 5, 2025
Get Up And Go Kayaking today announced the launch of its Clear Kayak Tour & Beach Yoga at Shell Key Preserve, a guided experience that blends a peaceful paddle through turquoise water and mangrove islands with a rejuvenating, instructor-led yoga session on a quiet stretch of sand.Designed for both first-timers and seasoned paddlers, the new tour invites guests to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature – from a moving meditation on the water to a gentle, grounding flow on the beach.
This experience is our way of helping people reconnect with the natural world. A mindful paddle, a quiet beach, and a gentle yoga flow create a moment of stillness that lets Shell Key work its magic.”
– Amber [Owner of Get Up And Go Kayaking – Tampa Bay]
As a kayak guide for the last six years and a student of yoga for the last fifteen, becoming a certified instructor this year allowed me to finally weave my two passions together in a way that feels both unique and deeply meaningful. These tours were born from a desire to give both visitors and locals a place to release the stress of traveling, planning, rushing, and simply being human.
When we paddle toward Shell Key and settle into the sand, something shifts. The noise in your mind softens, the breath deepens, and the body remembers what calm truly feels like. It is more than a tour. It is a chance to reconnect with yourself, with nature, and with the quiet truth that peace is always waiting beneath the surface.”
— Alessia Lopardo [Certified Yoga Instructor & Lead Kayak Guide]
