Description
Join us Saturdays and Sundays at 1:00 for a 2-hour adventure into the swamp guided by a ranger! Experience the beauty of the swamp from within, where you have the chance to see birds, extraordinary plant life, and the one-of-a-kind ecosystem in the cypress swamp. Wade through the crystal-clear water of a cypress dome and immerse yourself in this beautiful ecosystem. Bring close toed shoes you don’t mind getting wet, that also tie tightly, as well as long pants. Sundays expect an easier hike at Skillet Strand, while Saturdays gear up for an adventure on a more difficult level at Gator Hook. Reservations required, call the Nathaniel P.
