Airboat Eco-Adventure &
Dolphin Tour
GET READY FOR THE RIDE OF YOUR LIFE ON THE WILD SIDE!
The River Ventures / River Safaris Airboat Tour begins by winding down the Pepper Creek canal, then opening to the Homosassa River and famous Monkey Island! During your airboat adventure, there will be plenty of photo ops to catch wildlife in their natural habitat. Our experienced airboat Captains will offer tips to ensure you spot wildlife native to our area. So, keep that camera ready!
Your first wildlife encounter will be with our resident alligators Van and Halen and that’s just the beginning!
Hold on to your hats as the Airboat picks up speed and heads for the backwaters of the Homosassa River, Salt River, and the Little Homosassa River. What looks like miles of flat land is in fact expansive wetlands. The Airboat is your only link to dry land out here, except for the few tree-covered islands, or hammocks, where raccoons, deer, and wild boar run wild.
The next stop on your adventure is the mangrove islands in the Gulf of Mexico. Home to a variety of local and migratory birds, these islands not only provide nesting to the birds but are one of the most sought-after areas for near and inshore fishing!
You will glide around these beautiful mangrove islands, stopping to see sponge beds and native aquatic life! Turtles, sting rays, sharks, redfish, mullet, and dolphins are just a few that you may see during your tour!
