My girlfriend and I, had a wonderful time touring Silver Springs with “Craig”, one of the owners of Otter Paddle! We started out early in the morning around 830am! The water was so amazing! So clear, a gorgeous turquoise color, never before experienced! It was a cooler morning, for Florida, but the natural springs stay at a constant temperature of 72 degrees, year round! One of many, interesting facts, we learned from our tour guide!!! This created a thick mist above the water, that was enchanting, and mesmerizing! We encountered all sorts of wildlife along the way, including manatees, alligators, birds, and fish! Our guide always making sure, we stayed at a distance, respecting the wildlife, as well as our safety! We learned so much about the history of the Springs, and the animals/fish, as well! It was an experience we will remember, for the rest of our lives! Thank you Otter Paddle!!!!
