About

Come along as we welcome you aboard for a narrated adventure down the St. Johns River! Departing daily from our docks at Blue Spring State Park, this cruise is a long-standing tradition among travelers to Central Florida. Our new 1 hour offering is perfect for those with small children or those on a tight trip schedule. The St. Johns River is rich in history and wildlife, and our friendly crew is excited to share its wonders with you. Keeping in mind that we will be traveling in the wild and sightings change greatly from day to day, common things to see on the river include wading birds, manatees, aquatic plant life, cypress forests, and alligators. Only 45 minutes from Orlando and Daytona, this trip provides a great change of pace for vacationers and locals alike!

Boat Tour Accessibility update (summer 2024 only): due to maintenance and current park construction projects, our boat tour can not accommodate wheelchairs or motorized scooters. We apologize for any inconvenience.

If the park has stopped admitting vehicles, present your tour confirmation info to an available ranger for entry.
