Daylight saving time is almost here—and with it comes even more opportunities for outdoor fun and adventure here at The Black Hammock! Just read on as we share a few of our favorite parts of the season ahead, such as the thrill of our Orlando airboat rides. Take a look.

More time to ride

One of the biggest benefits of daylight saving time is, of course, the increase of “usable” time in our evening hours.

Sure, we lose an hour of sleep on that first day, but what we miss in snooze time we more than make up for in added evening fun. That’s more sunlight to enjoy after the work-and-school shuffle calms down, giving families and friends more time to relax outdoors or partake in thrilling airboat ride adventures here at The Black Hammock. Just take a look at our ride options, or call us today to learn about late-afternoon and evening rides worth enjoying in the season ahead.

One-of-a-kind animal encounters

In addition to gorgeous, colorful vistas over Lake Jesup at sunset, you can experience one-of-a-kind animal encounters during daylight saving time. During springtime, for example, dawn and dusk offer some of the best alligator viewing opportunities. Many of Lake Jesup’s famous feathered friends also become more active toward sunset, when the day cools down and gives them an opportunity to escape the sun’s warm rays. See these majestic creatures in action as they prepare for nightfall from one of our invigorating airboat rides!

Beyond the boat…

Of course, here at The Black Hammock, fun abounds beyond the airboat ride experience. Even after you disembark, your thrilling evening out can continue with dinner at The Black Hammock Restaurant, or refreshing drinks at The Lazy Gator Bar, where a gorgeous lakefront setting provides the perfect place to enjoy your extra hour with friends and family. Watch the sun dip below the horizon as you sip on something delicious, like our two-for-one Margaritas (available all day, every day), as well as tasty specials all throughout the week. Plus, we regularly offer live music opportunities and special events on evenings throughout the month, so you can swing by and experience something completely new and exciting on every visit.

What’s your favorite way to spend daylight saving time? Whether it’s long, lazy dinners with friends, or thrilling adventures that last long into the warm, sunny evening hours, we’ve got all you need to enjoy your extra hours here at The Black Hammock!
