We paddled up the Oklawaha to SR19 there we stopped for Lunch. On the way we saw manatee and alligators of varying sizes.

Went canoeing down the Oklawaha about several years ago with the put in at a boat ramp off of ST19 by down from Rodman dam. Soon after entering the river, I took an off shoot creek and immediately came across gators. At one point I had a gator submerge directly in front of me with no option but paddle over where he submerged. Willies for sure but for me at that time, nothing happened but I wouldn’t do it again. Came across quite a few gators again until I was back on the Oklawaha(canalish) at that point.
Beautiful paddle and got some nice pics.
That's a fantastic river. If you go on weekdays the Gators are more noticeable because there is less boater traffic. Thank you so much for watching.
Thank you! Yeah never know what's swimming around in those dark tannic waters.
Nice. Love the video ☺️
Thank you!
i was worried about the woman in the kayak having such a big heavy backpack on her.
Yes. She should have packed lighter for sure.
@@JungleJayAdventures you fall in it'll take your right down. Reminds me of the movie "the piano".
Thanks for pointing out the water hemlock. i dont know that poisionous plant.
Oh yeah, it even looks poisonous! Intimidating just to look at
@@JungleJayAdventures it looks pretty though. You'd never know.
Okla waha river
Thats the one! LOL
@@JungleJayAdventures :)
I heard the legend that sailors used to think that Manatees were mermaids. I could never understand how they in any way resemble mermaids. I love this territory. It's so beautiful. I wish I could have met you while I was in Florida last December. Be safe and best wishes!
I heard something similar. Oo lala hehehe. It gets dreadfully lonely on the long sea voyages. Or even lack of proper nutrition causing delusions. Don't know for sure but could be an interesting topic.
i'm looking forward to watching your movie.
Thumbs up!
Thank you! I appreciate you so much!
@@JungleJayAdventures 💟
What a beautiful adventure you all have.
Thanks! There are two more videos to follow this one.
Da italiana sono stata una settimana fa ad Ocklawaha che dire ho lasciato il mio cuore li❤️
La Florida è un posto fantastico, sono così felice che ti sia piaciuto correttamente. Grazie per aver guardato il mio video.
Wow i'm coming along for this trip.
Woohoo! Welcome Aboard!
@@JungleJayAdventures Thanks!
Hope church lets out early, and hope you got to see the crazy Lil monkeies 😊
No No munkies but other cool stuff!
@@JungleJayAdventures why does something so beautiful be so deadly 😫
Love those manatees I finally got to see some Monday ill put pictures on instagram... the are very curious creatures the came right up to us lol great video Jay 🤗 great music 🎶🎵
This is welaka fl not Cresant city
Thank God your Cheep drives perfectly now.
Yeah feel much safer in it since i repaired the suspension :)
Jeep is looking all pimped out. Nice. Wow, that looks like such a cool place to explore. Manatees are such cool animals, nice capture. Looking forward to part 2.
Thanks man! I appreciate that very much! It was a cool river to explore. There is another one just next to it that runs parallel. More narrow with interesting features.
@@JungleJayAdventures That bridge structure alone was just awesome. I've walked under those in various places, but paddling by is just so cool.
You put your nice flute music playing in your movie. Thumbs up!
Thank you! I had a hard time finding the music for the mood this time.
Love your videos. I plan to go kayaking around the Oklawaha soon. can't wait 4 new videos
Awesome! I do remember where we put in at was a bit swampy so there wasn't too many places to land when nature calls. But it was a great run lots to see. I do have more stuff coming. Life got in the way these last couple of weeks. Thank you for watching I appreciate it very much.
Really good time spent with the manatees ( SP ?) . I had no idea they are so big. Your kayak adventures are really special, although i like the Witch too for all the comforts of home....All is good, and many thanks !!
Yeah I enjoy both vessels and the differences of the experiences between the two. But yeah Manatees are huge creatures. dwarf a person easily. Thank you Sir I appreciate ya!
Great awareness , observation, knowledge and stealth to video the sea cows! It shows you are the real deal!
Thank you Coondog! I appreciate that that. Hope you have been keeping well.
Are these water lilies?
Yes, yes they are :)
@@JungleJayAdventures i love water lilies. Maybe you can also see them in bloom sometime.
Thumbs up Jungle Jay!
Thank you!
Y'all left out of welaka. Not Cresent city
Yeah It's not my neck of the woods. But thank you for the clarification.
@@JungleJayAdventures that's ok.used to know a old fisherman mr.harper he couldn't say oklawaha so he called it the a owl shit river
LOL! I have a hard time pronouncing some of the names myself.
Haha, you kept getting separated from the group. Got some nice footage though.
Yeah I always do. Because I constantly stop to see stuff on the way LOL
