Description
Along the St. John’s River and its watershed are vast floodplain marshes, creating an ideal habitat that attracts more than 200 bird species, more than any other habitat in Central Florida.
Nestled on the outskirts of Orlando's suburban landscape lies the "Real Florida," a region defined by subtropical wetlands that provide habitats for a diverse range of wildlife. Adventures in Florida offers two unique birdwatching tours that focus on exploring these vibrant ecosystems.
Along the St. Johns River and its surrounding watershed, expansive floodplain marshes create an ideal habitat that attracts more bird species than any other inland area in central Florida. Visitors can encounter over 200 species of birds throughout the year, including herons, egrets, bald eagles, anhingas, swallow-tailed kites, snail kites, limpkin, roseate spoonbills, ducks, warblers, and many more. Grab your binoculars and embark on an adventure where water and sky come together to form a birdwatching paradise.
The longer tour offers a more immersive experience, covering a greater distance of the river and providing additional opportunities to observe various birds and the surrounding environment. This tour also includes a light picnic lunch.
These tours were created by our guide, Matthew G., who recognized the demand for quality birdwatching experiences in the Orlando area. He stated, “I’m not an ornithologist, but I do have a special affinity for birds. It was bird watching, bird listening, that pulled me back into a love for the natural world.”
