Chain of Lakes Pontoon Cruise

Living Water Boat Cruise
Enjoy a relaxing two-hour pontoon cruise through the scenic lakes and canals of Winter Haven’s famous Chain of Lakes.

 

About “The Chain”
The Chain of Lakes is the heart of Winter Haven — a beautiful network of 22 freshwater lakes connected by scenic canals, covering more than 9,000 acres. The North Chain has 8 lakes, the South Chain has 14, and a lock system connects the two.

As we cruise Lake Eloise, you’ll pass by Legoland Florida, which now incorporates the historic Cypress Gardens — Florida’s first theme park, opened in 1936, with its original botanical gardens preserved.

 

Wildlife & Views
Keep your eyes (and binoculars) ready! You may spot alligators, otters, turtles, bald eagles, blue herons, pelicans, cranes, anhingas, white ibis, and more.

 

On Board
Our 20–22 foot pontoon boat features comfortable seating, drink holders, and a bimini top for shade. The cruise departs at 11:30 a.m.

 

Lunch Stop
After the cruise, we’ll dock at Harborside Restaurant on Lake Shipp for lunch (on your own). Guests love Harborside’s cozy atmosphere, beautiful lake views, and varied, affordable menu.

 

Tip: Heading north for the season? This is the perfect way to experience the Chain of Lakes before you go!
