If you are looking for a nice relaxing place where you can sit and watch the boats go by, then Okee-Tantie in Okeechobee, Florida is the place you should visit. Okee-Tantie is owned by Okeechobee county and includes a maria and nearby restaurant. Just a few years ago, there was also a thriving campground with 160 sites, but it has since closed.
Okee-Tantie sits along the Kissimmee River just a short distance from where the River flows into Lake Okeechobee. This is a popular place for fishing boats and pleasure crafts of all sizes. The nearby restaurant has great food and a great view of the marina and river, but tends to be a little pricey. There's an ample supply of picnic tables and benches along the river. So, you can bring a picnic and enjoy the view for as long as you like.
