Description: Wonderful Waterways Pontoon Tour 7/23/26 9a-11a
Location: Rock Island State Park
Join Seasonal Interpretive Ranger Aubrey for a pontoon float to Rock Island. Participants will enjoy a float down the Collins River and up the Caney Fork River to see the Island which gave the park its name.
Join Seasonal Interpreter Aubrey for a trip along the Collins River via pontoon boat, to learn about the natural and cultural significance of Rock Island’s waterways. On these floats, you will be able to enjoy the wonders of the Collins River, view local wildlife, and learn some history of the area. This is also a great opportunity to take some photos of the park from the water. This trip is recommended for families, nature lovers, and everyone in between. We will depart from the Kings Landing Boat Ramp and make our way down the Collins River to the Rock Island the park is named after. Feel free to bring snacks, water, cameras, and an extra jacket in case it gets chilly!
