Thanks so much!! It was a blast even though we got surprised by the storm. On another day, we lucked out with great weather and took the paddleboard out for a swim. Here's a link to that video in case you missed it! kzread.info/dash/bejne/eoiDmsltdNmzhZc.html

It rains every time we camp there. By now I'm sure you know that campers can pay at the campground store to use the tram to get back. It was only $10 each for campers, but now its $20+ or something like that. And yes, the parking lot can fill up in minutes on a summer weekend.

Thanks so much for the tip Soladaddy! It'd probably be pretty cool if it was just raining but the lightning was pretty freaky on this trip! Well worth a visit though. We love Rainbow Springs! 😍

It’s smart to go there during weekdays during the school year. Like you said, it can get REAL crowded. During the summer as you know, thunderstorms can pop up anywhere. And Florida is the lightning capital of the US.

Definitely! When one of the locals told us we better jump in right away we couldn't pass that up. There were some warning signs about the storm and just after we got in the feeling of being stuck out there wasn't too great. We'll have to be a little more careful in the future since lightning isn't something to mess around with. Always great to hear from you!

I read that you can canoe from the campground to the head springs to avoid the lines to get in, and you can also launch your tubes from the campground too and then take the tram back

We love Rainbow Springs but that thunder and lightning looks scary. Not to mention the gators. Omg we take Nikki on the kayak and paddle boards there thinking it’s too cold for most gators but now re thinking that. 🐊

Oh wow! Yeah there were a couple of alligators that we saw but they usually tend to stay to themselves. It's a little crazy though having your rear poking down in the water compared to being nice and high on a paddle board. We had to go back the next day to explore a little more on the board though. It's such a beautiful place! We hope you guys are having some great adventures and thanks for watching! 😊

Hello Paul & Sarah, wow, that water is so crystal clear amazing! Is it cold? Thunder and alligator, oh my GOD, that's scary, lol. By the way, love the drone shot, it give us a wonderful view. Anne & Eric

It was a little cold but the same temperature as all the springs at about 72 degrees F. We've never seen water that crystal clear before though. Wow! We're glad you loved it and hope you're having some good adventures. Thanks for watching! 😊

Love Rainbow River and the tubing area! We did the tubing in August too. You can bring reusable water bottles. We buy water shoes to walk around. Alligators won't normally bother you. When we went we didn't see any. We used bungee cords to stay together and tied our stuff with it.

That makes sense about being able to bring reusable water bottles. The alligator situation is always so funny because even if they're just relaxing on the bank, Sarah gets a little freaked out! Especially when you have your rear dangling in the water. Haha! That's a lot of great suggestions Florida and Beyond. Thanks for watching! 💓

Yes, your absolutely correct! While it's rare, there is the occasional alligator encounter in Florida. 🤷

So happy to find a PS Adventures video up to enjoy this morning! Just got home from swimming (I swim pretty much 7 days a week with very few exceptions). I am going to try to rest up for a Halloween party tonight. Movie recommendation: The Banshees of Inershin is a terrific movie. Tubing is something I have never done and would like to try in the future! (I would just make sure that no big storms are a-brewin').

I don’t live too far from there. That’s one of the most beautiful springs in the world, and the whole river is crystal clear. Swampy’s is a restaurant right on the river I recommend off 484. I had the Gator bites last time.

It's really unbelievable how crystal clear the water was. 200 feet of visibility is just incredible! Oh we saw that restaurant and heard it was a good place to visit. That's awesome that you live so close to Rainbow Springs. We'd go there all the time if we were closer. How cool that we were in your neighborhood. Ha!

Maybe Bungie cords to tie together the tubes?

That is a really good idea! That would have been great on our tubing trip. We kept floating different ways and trying to hold on to each other's tubes was really difficult! 🤣

You guys should paddle board and snorkel with the manatees of King’s Bay in Crystal River Florida. I highly recommend Manatee Tour and Dive and captain Chad k. I did it twice and loved it. It will make an awesome video.
