Boggy Creek Airboat Rides
If you’ve never ridden in an airboat before, you’re in for a thrill. These flat-bottomed crafts are propelled through the water by an aircraft-style propeller. These boats can go on both land and water, allowing passengers to see areas that are difficult to get to.
Boggy Creek Airboat rides takes you on a tour of the Central Florida Everglades where you’ll take a leisure cruise through a natural canal where you’ll have the opportunity to see birds, turtles, and alligators in their natural habitat. Then, the boat will reach up to 45 miles per hour as your captain takes you through the swamp lands of the Everglades. The boat captains are meticulous and passionate about preserving these important wetlands, and they limit the maximum amount of visitors they will bring into this area.
Even though you’ll have a chance to see the natural side of Florida, you won’t be roughing it if you take a Boggy Creek Airboat tour. Boggy Creek has been open since 1994 and along with the airboat tours you’ll find a store, a gift shop, and bathrooms. All boats are insured and inspected by the U.S. Coast Guard. They receive daily maintenance and safety inspections, and they all have life vests, safety equipment, hearing protection, and radios in each boat.
Boggy Creek Airboat Rides offers a unique opportunity to see the Florida Everglades up close and personal. You’ll hardly believe you’re so close to the bustling metropolis of Orlando as you cruise through the majestic nature of Central Florida in an airboat.
