Highly recommend seeing and swimming in these springs. Usually lots of manatees. Take a tour or rent a canoe or kayak n paddle yourself over to it. Or just tour the park.

Another great place to explore the Chassahowitzka River. Visit The Crack. It’s a blue lagoon literally a crack in the surface of the river where a fresh spring comes up. Worth the trek.
