There’s not much to snorkel on the west side of FL but from what I found out, this is a great spot if the water isn’t too rough. Enjoy 😊

@@justinnadeau thank you!!

@@wendyparker5634 You’re welcome, Wendy! Thanks for watching 🙏

@@mattman237 You’re welcome! This place is great during the non summer times. Gets pretty busy during that time.

Been there multiple times snorkeling and we’re safe. You never know though, a rogue shark could come anytime in any salt water here in Florida.

Miss this place! Soo much sea life there!

Hi Mike. Good info on that but isn’t that Crystal River? I’ve never heard of any fatalities at Rainbow River but I can be wrong as well. We don’t swim here though.

@@justinnadeau I was only joking Justin. HA. I have floated that river several times. It’s cold, clean and crystal clear

@@mikemurray1047 😂😂 Good way to scare folks off at least.

You’re welcome! Things have changed since I’ve posted this though. I believe you cannot get out and sit on the sides or have you kayak on the sides either. I think it’ll be fine for beginners, my wife and I came here when we first started to paddle board. Falling off is fine and cools you off at least. Current isn’t too strong especially, if it hasn’t rained on a while.

I think it would be a great spot. I’ve seen huge snook there and people fishing from a kayak. I’ve never seen anyone swim across though, some spots are deep and I’ve seen a lot of sharks in those deep spots there especially in the mornings when it’s not a lot of boats/jet-skis. I’m sure they wouldn’t bother you but the people on the jet skis I’d be more afraid of man. You could rent a kayak from there too if you didn’t want to swim to test the area out first.

Thanks man! Yeah, my wife always would like to get in these shots 😂. I’m slacking on these views though, I plan on making them again soon.

Ohh yes!! Such an amazing island and great vibes 😍🙌

Thank you 🙏 Was there the other day and the winds were 16 mph. Beach was not soo pretty 😂

@@justinnadeau it was cold there for a few weeks, lots colder in the great white north!!! :)

We love that location but like Urubici even more. I like the mountains. 🏔️ Be nice to see the snow there though. We like to visit Brazil once a year 🎉

@@justinnadeau Urubici is very nice

Thanks soo much! Thank you for watching as well 🙏🙌

Thanks for the heads up! We’ll add that to the list to check out soon 🙏🙌

Thank you Carolyn! It was a much needed reminder of some peaceful moments. Totally a great Airbnb 🙌🙏Thanks for watching.

Yes

@@justinnadeau where exscactly? Send location

@@Dagreatman Anna Maria Island

Haha Yes I am. Thank you! It was a wild experience. I must’ve had over 15 news channels and other people reach out to me about this video 😂

Thanks for watching 🙌🙌

Truly is a beautiful spot during the summer months. I recommend looking at the tide calculator and go during high tide for best visibility 🙌Thanks for watching 🙏

Thank you!@@justinnadeau

I was lucky to be there at a really good time 🍀

Thanks soo much! Had a great time filing this video. Hopefully, one’s internet the future will have great views as well. I hope soo too 🤞

Thank you 🙏

Definitely man! It’s one of the best places in Florida to see in my opinion 🙌

That would be cool to see while surfing. They have super bright belly’s! Thanks for watching 🙏🙌

Thanks soo much! Glad I could capture it all on the drone 🙏

Thank you...that was a great concern of mine.

Hi Kay. Thanks for your comment. I did report the boater to FWC with as much information as I could. I zoomed in trying to get the tag so I hope this helps them find out who did this.

They’re the best ❤

Thanks soo much Nancy :)

Thank you soo much :) I reported the boaters to the proper authorities.

HAHAHHA horrible hunter! McDonald's might be the best bet for him.

Someone should fillet the guy piloting that boat.

Do you know if the shark managed to catch a ray?

@@wendycain7225 The vide states that it didn't.

@@moi01887 Oh sorry, I didn't watch or read the comments properly. What an amazing place you live in! Thanks for sharing

Great spot! Very well known for Tarpon fishing too.

Thanks soo much 🙏🙌 Ohh yeah that boater knew what they were doing and it was wrong. 😑

Boater should be arrested.

Always on a lookout but they move pretty quickly. They don’t get close to the swimmers at all, at least this group didn’t.

Thanks my brotha 🙌 Such a cool experience 🙏

Thank you Carolyn! I wish I did, it’s hard for me to know the exact species of sharks. Could be al bull shark but someone can fix me if I’m wrong 😂

Beautiful video! Pity about the idiot in the boat. So disrespectful.
