Rotary Club of Pascagoula Guest Speaker: Kendall Smith, Owner and Captain of Eco-Tours of South Mississippi

May 6, 2026

Kendall Smith is a lifelong resident of Jackson County. Her deep connection to the region’s waterways shapes her work as owner and captain of Eco-Tours of South Mississippi. Growing up along the Pascagoula River, she developed an early appreciation for its marshes, bayous, and diverse wildlife—an appreciation that now defines her approach to ecotourism.

Kendall's tours reflect an intimate, lived knowledge of the river, allowing her to guide visitors through lesser-known channels and adapt each experience based on tides, seasons, and wildlife activity. Her perspective is rooted not just in professional expertise, but in years of personal familiarity with the rhythms and character of the river system.

Measuring approximately 80 miles in length, the Pascagoula River is recognized as the largest free-flowing river system in the contiguous United States. It provides the backdrop for Kendall Smith work and underscores its importance.

Through her tours, Kendall shares both the natural beauty and ecological significance of the area, helping visitors understand its value.
