Our summer tours take you on an expansive look at over 20,000 acres of swamp, allowing you to take in the beauty and some of the many inhabitants that make up this dynamic ecosystem. Some of the animals you’ll see on an Airboat Adventures tour include alligators, snakes, turtles, herons, egrets, and sometimes hawks, owls and bald eagles! White-tailed deer, nutria, raccoons and other mammals are sometimes visible, although they become mainly nocturnal during the summer months.

We feature 6 to 8 passenger airboats for smaller groups and 15 to 27 passenger airboats for the larger groups.
