Wekiva Island is a family-owned and operated business. When we purchased this incredible property, we wanted our business to reflect what was important to us. Because of that, Wekiva Island is driven by three pillars: Sustainability, Education and Art. We are dedicated to leading the way as a green business, sharing what’s remarkable about this location with our patrons and imparting more beauty into the world than we found. It is our hope that you will see these values reflected throughout our property, that they will touch and change you, and that you will carry them with you when you leave this special place.

Your mornings have a new home.

Meet The Early Otter, Wekiva Island’s new coffee bar located inside the Tooting Otter. Grab a cup and settle in by the river.

And because caring for the river is always part of what we do, sustainability is built into the experience, from lower-impact drinkware to finding a second life for our used coffee grounds.

The Early Otter is officially awake. Come see us and make mornings at Wekiva your new routine.

Sunday–Thursday: 8AM—9PM
Friday–Saturday: 8AM—11PM
