Saltwater Knowledge Born in St. Petersburg

CHERRY OUTDOORS started with a straightforward mandate: build an authentic St. Petersburg outfitter dedicated to backcountry paddling, coastal angling, and rugged field gear. We skip glossy market trends to focus entirely on saltwater durability, navigation accuracy, and local water safety.

Every kayak, rod, and tent in our inventory undergoes salt spray testing in Tampa Bay mangrove tunnels. We equip local paddlers and visiting explorers with field-tested gear and tide-aware route planning built on years of personal logbooks.

Respect Canopies, Master the Tides

Pack light, respect the mangrove canopy, and let us handle the tide charts and backcountry logistics. Coastal conservation starts with proper field preparation.

Verified Guide Feedback

Finding an outfitter with true local knowledge makes all the difference on Tampa Bay. Their tide charts and dry bags saved our island overnight trip.
