    I used to go here as a kid. There was a place off the sand boil trail where you could walk through that part of the river and go "inside" the sand boils. Not sure if that's still allowed or not.

    Do you have to rent a kayak to get to the swimming area?

    • @ChrissaTravels
      @ChrissaTravels  5 місяців тому

      Nope! No kayak rental needed. You can just walk from your car to the swimming area.

    Gators??? Isn't that dangerous? are they where you swim too?

    • @ChrissaTravels
      @ChrissaTravels  Місяць тому +1

      We’ve never seen any in a swimming area, but that doesn’t mean you’ll never see them there. Typically, they’ll close down the swimming area if there is a gator in the water, though. As long as you don’t go swim right up to them and keep your distance they leave you alone or swim away.

    It looks lovely but isn’t the idea to wear the life jacket in the kayak?

    • @ChrissaTravels
      @ChrissaTravels  Рік тому

      Lol…they are required to give them to you, but you’re not required the wear them. The water was only waist deep for most of the run, so we didn’t feel they were necessary. Plus, the portions of the lake we were in, the water wouldn’t have even hit our knees! ☺️

  • @addieandkaysenfamilyadvent1418

    Are there no gators in the swimming area, springs area? Looked beautiful but not sure if I would swim. I would show respect to any gator. 😂

    • @ChrissaTravels
      @ChrissaTravels  Рік тому +1

      No, they were down closer to lake George. I don’t think gators like it in the swimming area because there are too many people. You may see one in the morning, but they tend to leave once people start showing up.
