A nice little stroll along the river. The trail features a lot of bridges over the river, look for brown and greeen anoles, raccoons, squirells, and jumping fish. There is an observation deck in which to watch boats, fish, MANATEES possibly, with free access to a site seeing binocular set. Very easy, can be wet.
