Why Rainbow Springs Is the Ideal Labor Day Destination
Florida is known for its springs, but Rainbow Springs stands out for its vibrant, turquoise water and peaceful setting. The Rainbow River stays a cool 72 degrees, making it the perfect place to combine paddling and a refreshing swim while the heat is still here.
Our clear kayak guided tours give you a front-row seat to the magic below the surface where you’ll float over underwater grasses, spot turtles and fish swimming beneath you, and enjoy lush, tropical scenery all around.
And the best part? We stop at a hidden creek so you can hop out for a swim and explore some more in the most beautiful clear water. So make sure you don’t forget to pack your snorkeling gear for some fun in the creek!
