Loxahatchcee Eco River Tour

Jupiter Florida Cruises, Tours, Private Charters, Sightseeing & More!

---

As we depart the U Tiki Beach on the X Tikis or Conch Cruises and proceed west from the Jupiter Island area, we can cruise the water of the Loxahatchee River. Named by the Seminole Indians “lowchow” (turtle) and “hatchee” river. This 8 mile trip in both Palm Beach and Martin Counties is virtually an aquatic tour of unchanged landscaping used by the native Americans and European settlers for the past 300 years.

The “Lox” is one of two National Wild and Scenic Rivers in the state to receive this distinction in May 1985. Although we travel though the Jonathan Dickenson State Park for much of the tour, we are bordered by Hobe Sound to the north and Jupiter just south. Your picturesque trip will include a wide variety of tropical vegetation and animals that call this area home. Navigating the canopied river by majestic cypress trees, the variety of wildlife you can observe along the banks will include alligators, deer, raccoon, turkey, eagles, ospreys, turtles, blue herons, egrets, and may other varieties. The river is also live with game fish like tarpon, snook, and bass, and be prepared to focus your camera on the majestic gentle giants, the West Indies Manatees.
