Fishing & Boating

Welaka, Florida, and the surrounding community is a mecca for fishing and boating enthusiasts. With its abundance of waterways and crystal-clear springs, it provides the perfect backdrop for exploring the outdoors. Fishermen can cast their lines in freshwater lakes or venture out into the brackish St. Johns River estuary and enjoy saltwater fishing in one of the few rivers that flow north. Explore the winding riverbanks and surrounding islands, or take a leisurely cruise around Lake George by boat, kayak, or even paddleboard. Whether you’re an experienced fisherman or just looking to get out on the water, Welaka has something for everyone!
