WARNING: Spring fed water temperatures average 72º F year round. Inner tubing duration on Rainbow River & Weeki Wachee River is approx 4 hours.

That means you can NOT bring anything on the river that is designed to be thrown away after use (such as an Aquafina water bottle, zip lock bags, sandwich bags, soda cans, candy bar wrappers, etc). All food items MUST be taken out of their disposable wrappers & placed in NON-DISPOSABLE containers (such as Tupperware, thermoses, non-disposable water bottles, etc). This law is strictly enforced by law enforcement officers. Coolers are allowed. If you have any questions you can call the KP Hole county park officials at: 352.489.3055.
WEEKIE WACHEE RIVER NOTE: There is an approx 20 minute hike through a pineland forest in order to get to the river. You will have to carry your tube & supplies for approx 1.5 miles. The sand along this trail gets VERY HOT. Sandals or flip flops are mandatory for the hike.
