Wakulla Springs Jungle Cruise Boat Tour is a popular destination for families, offering a 45- to 55-minute world-class wildlife viewing event along the Wakulla River. The tour takes visitors on a 2-mile loop downstream and back among majestic bald cypress trees, elegant wading birds, and toothy alligators. Manatees are often sighted, and the tour may include stories of human interactions with the spring, including the lives of indigenous peoples and movies filmed during the Edward Ball years. The boats are 30 feet long, have a roof, and are wheelchair accessible. A manual wheelchair is also available for use upon request. The tour is suitable for families with children, and tickets can be reserved in advance. The park also offers other activities and events, including educational group boat tours and a car show
