🚢✨ Did you know the St. Johns River was once one of Florida’s busiest travel highways?
This vintage ad for the Clyde St. John’s River Line promoted steamboat travel between Jacksonville, Palatka, Sanford, and Enterprise. For just $3.75 (meals and berth included!) you could enjoy a scenic river journey on steamers like the City of Jacksonville or the Fred’k De Bary.
Today, while steamboats no longer carry tourists and merchants up and down the St. Johns, the river remains just as vital to Florida’s environment, economy, and way of life. 🌿💧
At SJRWMD, we help protect and restore the St. Johns River and its surrounding lands so future generations can enjoy its beauty and history.
