Okefenokee Adventures, entering its 21st year of operation in 2021, is a private, not-for-profit, eco-adventure outfitter and tour operator located inside the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge. The Okefenokee is the largest wilderness area in Georgia and the largest National Wildlife Refuge in the eastern U.S. To see and experience it, you must enter it—most easily by boat. The "land of trembling earth," the Okefenokee Swamp encompasses nearly 700 square miles of Clinch, Ware, and Charlton counties in Georgia and Baker County in Florida. Considered the largest blackwater wetland in the U.S., it has been protected by the federal government since 1937, has been named a Wetland of International Importance, designated as a National Natural Landmark and is listed as a tentative UNESCO World Heritage Site. A biological treasure trove, it harbors more than 600 species of plants, 40 mammals, 50 reptiles, and 60 amphibians.
