At Tom & Jerry’s Airboat Rides, we don’t just offer thrilling airboat tours—we create unforgettable adventures. Recently, our fearless captains carried a new resident, an approximately 3-foot-long alligator, to his freshly built lagoon on our property. This exciting addition showcases our commitment to preserving and celebrating Florida’s wildlife, providing a safe space for visitors to observe and learn about these fascinating creatures.
Whether you’re from Tampa, Orlando, The Villages, Wildwood, or just visiting Central Florida, we invite you to come by and see what makes our property more than just a starting point for airboat rides. Our new gator lagoon offers a unique opportunity for families, wildlife enthusiasts, and adventure seekers to get up close and personal with one of Florida’s most iconic reptiles—all in a safe and controlled environment.
The Journey to a New Home: Watch Our Captains in Action
Our captains are seasoned professionals with a passion for wildlife, and their commitment to providing a memorable experience is clear in everything they do. Moving our young alligator to his new lagoon was no small task, and we captured the entire journey on video. Watching our brave captains carry this gator to his new home is a thrilling sight and shows the heart and excitement that make our property a must-see destination.
Why We Built a Gator Lagoon
We wanted to create a dedicated habitat for our alligator where he could live comfortably and where visitors from surrounding areas like Orlando, Tampa, and Kissimmee could safely learn about Florida’s unique ecosystem. The lagoon offers a natural environment for the gator, with fresh water, natural vegetation, and plenty of space to swim and bask in the sun. It’s not only a home for the alligator but an educational experience for our guests who can see these amazing animals in a habitat close to what they would experience in the wild.
An Adventure Beyond the Airboat
At Tom & Jerry’s, every visit is more than just an airboat ride—it’s an invitation to explore, learn, and experience Florida’s wild side. From our exciting airboat tours that zip across Lake Panasoffkee’s swamps and canals to our new gator lagoon, there’s something for everyone here. Our captains are not only skilled navigators but also knowledgeable guides who love sharing insights about the local wildlife, plants, and ecosystem.
Perfect for Families and Wildlife Lovers
Our new lagoon is a hit with families and wildlife lovers alike. Young explorers can safely observe the alligator from designated viewing areas, while our experienced staff is always on hand to answer questions and share interesting facts. We make it a priority to ensure that our visitors understand and appreciate the wildlife of Central Florida, and this lagoon is just one more way we’re enhancing the experience.
