Hey Florida Travelers! Have you ever kayaked down the Wekiva River? Did you launch from Wekiwa, Wekiva Island, or elsewhere? If you would like to see an overview of Wekiwa Springs check out this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-URFhW5hj-1Q.html
Hi Team Chopsticks! Thank you so much for watching! :) It is such a beautiful place, and I hope that you add it to your Florida vacation. Are you planning a trip?
Not me i have heard about gator attacks that were hair raising close to death attacks were people get nocked out of their kayaks and leave them after swimming to shore . This was a kayak owner who was afraid to return to the river and never retrieved his kayak
Love it Chrissa! We love kayaking! Love this addition to the previous video! Always really helpful! When you go to these places, it always seems so exclusive because no one else is in your shots! Always get there early because you get the whole place to yourself!
Hi exploreaswego! Thank you so much for watching as always! :) lol.. I have always been an early bird... I don't know why I enjoy getting up so early, but it definitely helps with getting to places early before anyone else!
Wekiva River is sooo beautiful! You would just LOVE it. There are so many springs in this area I think you would just go bonkers for! I can't wait until we can head down to feature the Devil's Den, have you ever been??
@@ChrissaTravels No I have never done any of the springs in Florida! I have been dying to go! I am so happy you are highlighting these places I never even knew existed! You are the best!!!!
@@1ife.elevated whaaaaa?! You've never been to a spring before! WOW... well, if you ever head back this way, let me know... and I will take you!! We can do a collab or something. I literally am just scratching the surface.... the videos I have lined up for this year include the silver springs... that has wild monkeys... YES.. I said wild monkeys and Weeki Waachi - that has a live mermaid show.. and water park! Devil's Den that I was telling you about earlier... is a spring in an underground cave.
@@ChrissaTravels Literally so down, Im not a crazy far distance from your area so let me know I would love to come up and collab with you for sure, and more than once!!!
Hi Bow&Boujee! Thank you so much for watching! :) It really is just beautiful out there. I wish I could do it more. Are you thinking of kayaking when you come down... or just the springs?
It is really calm... which makes it perfect for beginners! For most of the river, the water is really shallow....maybe 2-3 feet. We only usually stay in the first part of the river... and I think the deepest I've noticed it go was maybe 5-6 feet and it doesn't stay deep for long.
It is so beautiful on the river! One of my favorite places in Orlando! Lol....the gator looks much bigger in this video than it did in real life. They don’t tend to disturb you unless you get too close!
