5Back to Nature
Excellent nature cruise. Pleasant ride and extremely interesting and informative guide. We saw alligators, many birds, a few manatee and learned a lot about the ecosystem in general. 2 hrs went fast
4Warning to register for Sate Park parking before you go.
Go online to the Florida State park website before you go to register for entrance to the park. You can only pay online to enter the state park and you have to register for the state parks website to do that. It will save frustration when you get there. It is hot and boat moves very slow be prepared. The river is beautiful and birds were beautiful.. Host was Ok. He did give some hosts and tell about the birds we saw. I think we went at a bad time of year. Not many birds. Only 1 baby alligator.
5Excellent and I'm so grateful!
Lee our narrator was just wonderful. I've been on this trip two or three other times over the past 20 years, and it's always been truly excellent. I would recommend people bring binoculars or a binocular to spot all the wildlife that the narrator and other passengers will point out.
5Fun@
