Where in Astor are you thinking of staying? Its a VERY back woods area there... Its a ways to get to lake Monroe, as there are many no wake zones and manatee zones. If memory serves you would be looking at over 2 hours.

Astor to Lake Manroe is about 1.5 to 2 hours due to all the idle zones. Make sure you plan to stop at Silver Glenn Springs on the west side of Lake George which is about 20 minutes north of Astor. Over the years, Silver Glenn has attracked boaters from Tampa to Jacksonville on any given weekend. Haven't been there in a few years, but I'm sure it's still there. You can also stop at Blue Springs south of Astor and check out the manatees.
