Salt Springs Camping Trip in Ocala National Forest with Aerial Drone footage

[@patmurphy389]

erick, i don't know why i stumbled on this, but when i was 18, my sister's friend borrowed her dad's RV & we camped where you are at & swam in the springs, the three of us, we swam in the spring for hours until we were numb, couldn't feel our hands/feet, there were divers there too w/tanks, thank you for the memories & the video!!!

[@ErickMartinSucre]

I am glad I was able to re-awaken a memory like that. Thank you for liking my video

[@MagnusDominus1]

I love the aerial views.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Magnus Dominus Hello Magnus and thank you for watching. Glad you liked it! It was fun staying at that camp site

[@travelingwithrick]

Excellent drone work. Shows the geography so well. We are camping there now. Tomorrow I take my small inflatable kayak out were you were.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

That is so awesome!! The river run is not long at all and you'll get to the lake in like 30 min or so

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Thank you for watching and enjoy your stay there 8-)

Very charming personality! Perfect music, best video of the salts I’ve seen. Well done. I hope to go soon I’m glad you included the weather! Haven’t heard that in any of the videos.

[@chessewaz]

Are their outlets there?? Near the camp sites?

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

@@chessewaz Outlets as in power Outlets?

[@chessewaz]

Erick Martin Sucre yes like could I bring a hot plate/griddle to cook my food

[@ErickMartinSucre]

@@chessewaz Not on the primitive sites but there are some RV sites with water and electric hookups

[@thiscrackerhere8687]

[@ErickMartinSucre]

[@micahwilliams9063]

Great footage, liked the video!

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Thank you Micah!!

[@furballkimfpv9365]

Wow that was really great Eric. Man looks warm there here its become fall weather frisky cool and windy. I love that footage of the lake and river. Been a few years I have not camped. Love the swimming area far out. That turtle is looking for a handout of green's. Bet people been feeding him lattice. That was great Eric really like that place. The flying was great footage very cool. Thanks my friend

[@ErickMartinSucre]

No thank you Kim for complimenting my work brother! I am glad you liked it, yeah that turtle was people friendly mostly because people feed him. I wanted to reach the lake but my boat does not have that range. I may need to consider buying a gas motor instead of an electric one for my boat. That way I can go further in water trips.

[@jimoros6474]

I was waiting for you to make some pinchos 😋

[@ErickMartinSucre]

mmmmmmmm!! Pinchos sound real good right about now

[@rlowe9729]

That was awesome bro, beautiful aerial footage.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Thank you Rlowe! I tried reaching that lake in the distance but my boat did not have the range but I am glad you like it!

[@tomcatt1824]

Man U did a fine job on that video,, really enjoyed it...

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Thank you for saying that Tom!! I appreciate it

[@hogansgarage5451]

Great video man been waiting for it

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Thanks Hogan, sorry it took forever to make this video. It's been a hectic month here in Florida but things are finally starting to become normal. I am planning another camping trip soon but I am not sure where to go next. I'll keep you and everyone else posted.

[@hogansgarage5451]

Random stuff with Erick Martin alright thanks man i want to come for those shots lucky

[@ErickMartinSucre]

You will get the chance you'll see

[@julianasantiago]

Camping really does a mind and body good! Are there more secluded kind of areas for camping where i can set up my tent and not necessarily see others? You should try Ginnie Springs. That's our place. Thanks for the video!

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Indeed it does Miss Julianna! I will try Ginnie Springs for sure! I have found a very secluded camping place but it requires a boat. Here is a link of a video I made of it if you'll like to see it. The place is called Anclote key Preserve State Park. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYfCeGijftF2i8U

[@davesevigny4315]

Great video showing the campground. I would like to stay there in the primitive area. I am hoping that you would answer a couple questions. Are there any more secluded sites? does each site have a table and fire ring? lastly what is the cost per night to stay there? Thank you in advance for your time responding to the questions.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Thank you! The sites near the boat ramp entrance are a bit more secluded than the ones near the trailer campground. Most of the sites have tables and fire rings and it's about 30 bucks or so per night

[@dmgolub1]

Great video, Erick. Do you know if I can bring my small aluminum boat with a 2hp Honda on the water there? And how bad were the mosquitoes? Thanks

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Hey thanks for watching!! Yes you can. I'm planning to go back on February with my 12 foot dinghy and a 6hp outboard. You'll see kayakers, paddlers and other boats

[@squatking1]

What site do you recommend there?

[@ErickMartinSucre]

I prefer the non electrical sites but they do have sites with water and electricity. The ones with electricity tend to be further away from the bathrooms and the river run but the non electric are closer to it.

[@squatking1]

Thank you Erick. Gonna try and get one by the boat ramp. Nice video.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

My pleasure Ricardo and thanks for watching. Have fun out there 8-)

[@dhayner]

Drones are allowed in this recreation area?

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Not sure really but they never gave me any trouble for it. If you happen to be there and want to fly your drone just be discreet.

[@ronygarcia7169]

coño! un Dominicano en la foresta de Ocala, soy de Orlando y siempre voy a Ocala forest pero nunca he ido camping ahí, tengo uno par de pana que siempre van conmigo pero de pasa-dia, la proxima vez que vallas tirame a este email para ir todos hacer corito sano con el primo Luca por un finnde semana💪🏾💪🏾 nice video bro

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Gracias bro! Yo la pase bien y el spring is bien bonito. No tengo pensado volver porque encontre un lugar tremendisimo en el cual yo voy por lo menos una vez al mes. Se llama Anclote Key Island lo unico malo es que se necesita un bote para llegar a la isla pero es tremendo lugar

[@outdooradventureswithjason6275]

Eric good video brother, enjoyed it. If your ever up for going back let me know, maybe we could do a joint trip? I've got a pop up and kayaks, me and my fiancé love the outdoors. We live in lake county, near lake Griffin.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Hey thanks!! I am glad you've enjoyed it! Lately I have been visiting a place called Anclote Key Island. It is in Holiday, FL and in order to get to it one must travel about 3 miles in sea to get to the camping site. Not sure I'll camp at Salt Springs any time soon though

[@outdooradventureswithjason6275]

Random stuff with Erick Martin Subscribed.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

You know now that I think about it, if you ever camp out there let me know. I can at least pay a visit and hand out

[@ErickMartinSucre]

hang out I mean

[@msbutterfly714]

I live on the east coast and have heard a lot of people say they have gone to Ocala national forest and tube down a long water trail, anybody know of it? Thanks in advance.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

msbutterfly714 I personally know of Rock Springs. I'll check to see if I find more info

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Ichetuknee Springs has tubing. Here is a site depicting the experience. floridahikes.com/tubing-the-ichetucknee I myself have not gone there yet

[@Roaming-Mike]

I wish you never mentioned the drone going 1000 ft the law is 400 just to keep that in mind and certain parks your not permitted to fly .. great video by the way

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Yeah, on those I have to get creative. For instance, I can't fly it inside Alexander Springs, so I go outside, fly over the park and bring it back.

[@dorriepetersen9136]

I would like to know more about the boat 🚤

[@ErickMartinSucre]

I'll be happy to tell you about it. Although I have sold it and upgraded, the boat was a Saturn SK396 Kaboat. It can be used as a kayak, small boat with a motor or as a hybrid using both motor and paddles. Hybrid mode is really fun. Even though I was using an electric trolling motor I eventually upgraded to a small 2hp gas motor. Currently I am using a Saturn SD380 with a Tohatsu 6hp motor. The boat I got it from Boatstogo.com and the motor from Onlineoutboards.com If you have any further questions please feel free to ask me and I'll be happy to answer asap

[@malekbadwan3631]

can you make a video explaining why my volkswagen golf 2008 rabbit makes a noise when I first turn on the car and when I put it in reverse. it goes away when i put it in drive. please help

[@ErickMartinSucre]

If it sounds like a whining noise and goes away after like 10 seconds, it's the oil pump. There is nothing wrong with it is just the way the 2.5 enginie is built mine does the same thing. I took it to a shop and asked the mechanics why does this car whines like that and they said they all do. Now if the noise is caused by the reverse gear then it may be something different that I may not be aware of since I drive a standard.

This is close to where Casey Jones live Stream illegaly feeds wild bears and claims he's feeding the deer...as a once insider, I know he feeds the bears on purpose.

[@ErickMartinSucre]

Bouncer Slab First time I hear this honestly. I did see a bear on my second night camping there

[@chessewaz]

Are the bears in the camping area?!
