Beginning at Riverbend Park, the Loxahatchee River excursion initially takes you through a narrow and winding path downstream towards the Atlantic Ocean. The entire journey, back and forth from the park via the river, generally takes around 2 hours subject to the conditions of the water and weather. The route boasts a stunning cypress swamp, patches of sand, and is home to countless species of flora and fauna. Substantial parts of the tour take place under the cool shelter of a picturesque cypress tree canopy. The water levels and currents can fluctuate depending on the season, and it may be necessary to carry the boat at times. Detailed conditions and specific excursion information should be confirmed with staff.
