What a beautiful film. In recent years I have a chance to spend time running the middle section into the navigable reaches by powerboats of the headwaters region to the south. There is no doubt, this is a very special waterway. This film makes me realize it is even more special than I have found during my own explorations of the river.
At 5:40, a little snippet of the iconic lady St John's and Annabelle Lee dinner boats that were located in the downtown Jacksonville area for years. After the vessel lady Saint John's sank at the dock, the old paddlewheeler Annabel Lee was sold off.
I live just outside Sanford Florida and fish the St Johns regularly from Lake Beresford down to Lake Harney. It is even better than this video portrays it...
Orlando Wetlands Park is where the excess toilet water ends up. It's literally half the flow of the river. Then you have the runoff from the fertilized green yards from the Econ. It gets a little smelly around those parts.
"Rainwater flowing off the mountain in Orlando, to form the upper St Johns River"........SERIOUSLY??? This guy has his wires all crossed up, because Orlando is WAY FAR to the northwest of the headwaters of the upper St Johns ( the extreme southern end. ) We're talking over 60 miles away, at least. Anyone with half a brain & eyes can look at a map to see what I'm talking about. Hell, the Kissimmee River is much closer to Orlando than the St Johns, which is way to the east of Orlando. I know what I'm talking about, because I've been living here in Melbourne Florida right near the headwaters since 1969........and I still spend a lot of time on this river and it's lakes, false channels, and adjoining marshes & canals. Sure, some of the natural springs to the east of Orlando meander their way to the St Johns, but that's FAR NORTH of the headwaters that he's talking about. You will notice on a map that the true headwaters of the St Johns originates just north of beautiful Blue Cypress lake, which is almost due west of Vero Beach. "Rain off "the mountains" of Orlando forming the headwaters of the St Johns".......good grief man.

I love St. Johns River.
Great video. I would love to see an updated one explaining the total loss of vegetation.
A very moving presentation. Thank you!
Looking to escape South Florida and plan a old Florida vacation, this looks like a great place to start.
Great video!
