Two popular restaurants are worth a visit; Gracie's Back Porch and O'Keefe's Irish Pub. The City of Tavares 4th of July fireworks display on Lake Dora is especially noteworthy. The fireworks are launched across the lake and the reflections off the water and the echoes from the surrounding hills make the show a unique experience. Another popular Tavares activity is a boat tour on the Dora Canal. The canal, which connects Lake Dora and Lake Eustis, runs through a protected wildlife area with towering cypress trees and abundant wildlife. Alligators are a common site, along with beautiful wood ducks, cranes, egrets and blue herons. In mid winter, you can occasionally observe a family of otters swimming and fishing in the canal. If you have any questions or would like to tour any of our available Tavares homes, please do not hesitate to contact us.
