Pontoon Boat Ride On Ocklawaha

We spent a magical 3 hours aboard Captain Erika's Pontoon boat, the "Anhinga Spirit" as we toured the semi tropical waterway filled with ancient cypress trees and wild life. Highly recommend the tour. The white flowers are wild orchids growing off an ancient cypress tree.

Beautiful photos, thanks for sharing.

I used to own a pontoon boat here and we would ride the Chain of Lakes and the scenery was just incredible.

Beautiful. That is what I imagined the scenery would look like when we toured the Dora Canal. It was nice, but these photos are what I had envisioned. Is this the website for the tour you took: A CRUISING DOWN THE RIVER !

Thank you for sharing. I would love to do this trip.

Yes, Captain Erika 352 546 5718 - She was very knowledgeable and friendly - 3 hours flew by amid perfect weather and scenery. If you go, Erika will you remember us to Erika (I have an English accent) - we toured on Friday. At times I felt as though I were on the African Queen, and I said I would not go into the water and pull the boat !!

LOL, nor would I pull the leeches from your body. Once again, you have outdone yourself with the beautiful photographs.

Me Too! Looking for places to go "off campus" with our family when they come to visit.

Looks like a wonderful mini adventure.

I love that kind of stuff!
