(52,467 posts)47. I've tried canoeing on the Wekiva
and two memorable times on the Econlockhatchee river. Where the Wekiva was a paradise everywhere you looked, the latter experience was very native. We canoed once in dry season, and another time when its banks were flooded. Different experiences.
Oh, and I think we went to Blue Springs and saw manatees swimming along the bank.
There is one last experience that was cave involved. We followed a path up a creek to a hole. Literally, a hole in the wall. The Park rangers had tried to cordon it off with iron bar, but someone had found a way to break in. Young adult men were earning their badge of courage by squeezing through those bars. Never in a million years.
