Come visit Florida's ULTIMATE natural attraction at Boggy Creek Airboat Rides. With two Central Florida locations and convenient hours of operation, you're sure to witness some of the most spectacular scenery that Florida has to offer on a Boggy Creek Airboat Ride! Airboats glide across the water at speeds up to 40 miles per hour on our Coast Guard-inspected and --approved boats. Airboat rides travel along both East and West Lake Tohopekaliga, or Lake Toho for short, which is considered one of Florida's most spectacular waterways. Lake Toho is the headwater to the Florida Everglades, often thought of as one of the world's greatest treasures, and the two locations of Boggy Creek Airboat Rides travel along both East and West Lake Toho!
Boggy Creek Airboat Rides are safe and fun for all ages! Our business is built AROUND Mother Nature, not over her, and our passengers find that this is one of the most unique attractions that Central Florida has to offer. With four distinctly different tours, running all year long, visitors and locals can learn more about Florida's natural landscape and environment through a tour at Boggy Creek Airboat Rides.
Guests on our Scenic Nature Tour explore narrow water trails engulfed in the brush of the Central Florida Everglades. On this half-hour tour, you'll stop periodically, hoping to spot Florida's state reptile, the American Alligator, in its natural setting. Witness rare and endangered birds swooping effortlessly through the skies as the sunshine warms your body and the wind whips through your hair. Other wildlife abound throughout the trip. This tour is perfect for groups and families looking to explore and learn about the unexpected side of Central Florida.
A longer trip on our Detailed Nature Tour increases the number of encounters with Florida's wildlife, especially the American Alligator, which can reach up to 15 feet in length and 1,000 pounds. You'll experience nature right alongside turtles, bald eagles, blue herons, deer and a wide variety of water fowl in their natural environment, not in captivity.
Zooming through the Central Florida Everglades at night provides a unique experience not found anywhere else. During the Night Expedition, you'll spend 45 minutes zipping through narrow trails of tall grasses, without knowing what will be found around the next bend. You'll come face-to-face with an abundance of nature's nocturnal hunters that come alive and present a unique experience that provides a lifetime of memories for any family or group. Our experienced Coast Guard Captains provides insight into the wonderful world of nature after dark in this 45-minute tour at our Southport location.
In our VIP Swamp Excursion, you'll experience an exclusive wild ride through nature on a six-passenger airboat during a 45-minute tour of the Central Florida Everglades. Rare and exquisite birds - some found no other place in America - soar majestically overhead in the bright Florida sunshine. You'll encounter places untouched by man in an airboat, which reaches places no other watercraft can reach. It's a perfect experience for a family who wants a personal touch.
At Boggy Creak Airboat Rides, reservations are not required at either of our locations. We strive to maintain a unique experience for our visitors, and we're a must-see for any nature lover who wants to learn more about the Florida environment and wildlife.

Boggy Creek Airboat Rides, fanboat, searching for gators, Kissimmee, Florida, United States
An airboat, also known as a fanboat, is a flat-bottomed vessel (jon boat) propelled in a forward direction by an aircraft-type propeller and powered by either an aircraft or automotive engine. Airboats are a very popular means of transportation in the Florida Everglades, parts of the Indian River Lagoon, the Kissimmee and St. Johns Rivers, as well as Louisiana Bayous, where they are used for fishing, bowfishing, hunting and eco-tourism, and in other marshy and/or shallow areas where a standard inboard or outboard engine with a submerged propeller would be impractical. The engine and propeller are enclosed in a protective metal cage that prevents objects, e.g., tree limbs, branches, clothing, beverage containers, passengers, or wildlife, from coming in contact with the whirling propeller, which could cause devastating damage to the vessel and traumatic injury to the operator and passengers. The propeller produces a rearward column of air that propels the airboat forward. Steering is accomplished by forced air passing across vertical rudders. There must be a forceful airflow in order for the vessel to be steered. Airboats do not have brakes and are incapable of traveling in reverse, unless the prop design is collective pitch. Stopping and reversing direction are dependent upon good operator/pilot/driver skills. The operator/pilot/driver and in most instances the passengers, are seated in elevated seats that allow visibility over swamp vegetation. The improved visibility permits the operator and passengers to observe floating objects, stumps and animals in the airboat's path. The characteristic flat-bottomed design of the airboat, in conjunction with the fact that there are no operating parts below the waterline, permit the vessel to be navigated easily through shallow swamps and marshes, in canals, rivers and lakes as well as on frozen lakes. The airboat's design makes it the ideal vessel for flood and ice rescue operations.
Steering the airboat is accomplished by swiveling vertical rudders positioned at the rear (stern) of the vessel. The propeller produces a column of air that produces forward momentum. That column of air passes across the rudders, which are directed through the forward and backward movement of a vertical stick located on the operator's left side. The stick is attached to the rudders via teleflex cable or linked rods. Overall steering and control is a function of water current, wind, water depth and propeller thrust. The Army Corps of Engineers uses an airboat to collect herbicide-resistant hydrilla from Lake Seminole in northern Florida. The sound produced by an airboat's propeller and engine can be loud; the majority of the sound is produced by the propeller. Modern airboat designs and modern technology have significantly reduced the sound that an airboat produces. Modern airboat engines are equipped with mufflers and multi-blade carbon-fiber propellers that greatly reduce the sound emitted by the airboat. Airboats vary in size from standard, 10-foot (3.0 m)-long hunt/trail boats, with a two- to three-passenger capacity, to large 18-passenger and greater tour boats.

Bees, Boggy Creek Airboat Rides, Kissimmee, Florida, United States, North America
Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, and are known for their role in pollination and for producing honey and beeswax. Bees are a monophyletic lineage within the superfamily Apoidea, presently classified by the unranked taxon name Anthophila. There are nearly 20,000 known species of bees in seven to nine recognized families, though many are undescribed and the actual number is probably higher. They are found on every continent except Antarctica, in every habitat on the planet that contains insect-pollinated flowering plants. Bees are adapted for feeding on nectar and pollen, the former primarily as an energy source and the latter primarily for protein and other nutrients. Most pollen is used as food for larvae. Bees have a long proboscis (a complex tongue) that enables them to obtain the nectar from flowers. They have antennae almost universally made up of 13 segments in males and 12 in females, as is typical for the superfamily. Bees all have two pairs of wings, the hind pair being the smaller of the two; in a very few species, one sex or caste has relatively short wings that make flight difficult or impossible, but none are wingless. The smallest bee is Trigona minima, a stingless bee whose workers are about 2.1 mm (5/64) long. The largest bee in the world is Megachile pluto, a leafcutter bee whose females can attain a length of 39 mm (1.5). Members of the family Halictidae, or sweat bees, are the most common type of bee in the Northern Hemisphere, though they are small and often mistaken for wasps or flies.
The best-known bee species is the European honey bee, which, as its name suggests, produces honey, as do a few other types of bee. Human management of this species is known as beekeeping or apiculture. Bees are the favorite meal of Merops apiaster, the bee-eater bird. Other common predators are kingbirds, mockingbirds, beewolves, and dragonflies.

Orlando Florida A-Awesome Airboat Ride
- A-Awesome airboat rides in the Orlando FL area. I did this with my family and LOVED it. Guide was fun, boat was just right for us. I liked the small boat because the ride was a lot more fun and everyone had great visibility. We saw uncountable numbers of gators, bald eagle, blue heron and lots of other wildlife.
BTW - I don't know the owners and they don't even know I did this. But the brochures all look the same so hopefully this video will show you what it's like. This video was shot with a FLip mino HD, which has a very limited zoom. Point is, we were VERY close to these gators!
