Experience the Beauty of the San Antonio River at the Goliad Paddling Trail!
Twice a year, paddlers from across Texas gather in Goliad for the Spring and Fall Flotillas, celebrating the natural beauty and rich history of the San Antonio River. Whether you’re a seasoned kayaker or a first-time paddler, our family-friendly event offers a unique way to experience the great outdoors.
This year, our Fall Flotilla on November 1, 2025 features a new put in location which is west of the Hyw 59 Bridge to Goliad State Park. The float from the new location to Goliad State Park is approximately 7 miles long.
As you paddle, consider helping us document local wildlife by photographing plants, animals, birds, and fish and posting them on iNaturalist. Your contributions will support our non-profit’s ongoing efforts to track and protect species along the river.
Join us for a day of paddling, community, and adventure!
