Local guy, Matt Labo, of Blue Sky Kayak Tours, along with Hibiscus Coffee and Guest House, made it into the Sept issue of National Geographic Adventure magazine. Congrats to Matt and his growing company. 
Anyone seen the issue yet?
Tour a Panhandle Anomaly, Florida
Dune lakes are a spectacular—and spectacularly rare—commodity, found only in New Zealand, West Africa, and Florida's southern Walton County. For a weekend trip, we suggest the latter, where more than a dozen brackish-water, sandy-bottom lakes lie a dune away from sugar-sand Gulf beaches. Naturalist Matt LaBo runs half-day trips in the lakes ($55; www.blueskykayak.com) and through a network of marshes, estuaries, and the Gulf of Mexico. Hibiscus Coffee & Guesthouse ($125; www.hibiscusflorida.com), in Grayton Beach, is a shabby-chic haunt near the water.
