Lake Toho is a very important
lake in the Central Florida area. Not only does
the lake provide an important habitat and ecosystem
to the wildlife and plant life, it is also the headwaters
of the Florida Everglades, another important Florida
ecosystem. Your captain is very knowledgeable in
this area and will relay interesting information
about these areas. Located toward the middle of
the lake is Makinson Island. The tour will swing
you by the island and you will be able to see the
wildlife of the area, as well as some pretty big
osprey nests.
The airboat is propelled by a
gigantic engine that will have you skipping across
the surface of the lake like a rock. Big Toho Airboat
Rides is a U.S. Coast Guard certified watercraft
and they will provide you with the proper safety
equipment, including life vests and ear protection.
You will enjoy a safe, fun and exciting tour on
Lake Toho.
Be sure to bring your camera because
there will be plenty of opportunities to capture
some of the most beautiful landscape and wildlife
pictures that you can take. At the end of the tour,
when you are back on dry land, you will have a chance
to hold, and take pictures with, a baby alligator.
Come and spend an hour with Big Toho Airboats rides
and see what Old Florida has to offer.
