I am delighted and honored to be featured in the June-August Summer East Coast issue of Allegiant Airline's in-flight magazine, Nonstoplife. There is a two-page story that features Myakka River State Park. Sarasota Vortex Tours is listed as tour provider in the park.

Where have all the guided tours gone?
As of June 2026, there are no official tour concessioners in the park. For decades visitors have enjoyed tram rides into the prairie and boat rides on the big lake. But since the multiple powerful storms on 2022-2024, these beloved attractions are no longer available. Don’t worry! There are still 2 options for ecotours with private tour operators.
Sarasota Vortex Tours - Interpretive Walking Tours
Endless Summer Eco Tours and Rentals - E-Bike Safari
The article states,
For those interested in learning more about why Sarasota is often called “Sedona by the Sea,” Sarasota Vortex Tours offers year-round Vortex Tours at Myakka River State Park. The only vortex tour company in the state of Florida, Sarasota Vortex Tours takes groups of up to eight people on a two-and-a-half-hour guided ecotour that visits three different locations within the park to interpret the energy of each landscape. Guests will practice intuitive development skills to interpret the signs and messages from nature, like, “Is it a good sign to see a flock of wild turkeys?”
Private tours are available to book as well. srqvortex.com
