Great place for a swim. Remember to bring goggles or a snorkel. Also great opportunity to canoe or kayak up the river. Best to get there early if you want to see Alligators. Otherwise plenty or turtles and bird life. I would recommend bringing your own food and water.

I visited Wekiwa Springs State Park recently, and it was a really refreshing experience. The springs are clear and beautiful, and the surrounding trails make it a great spot for a walk or a short hike. I spent some time relaxing by the water, and it felt peaceful and quiet away from the city. The park is well-kept, and the staff were friendly when I had questions. I’d definitely go back for another visit.

Nice State park. We did a Canoe trip. Within in a few minutes we saw our first manatees. A little further down the springs were turtles and a fairly large gator. There’s a nice boardwalk hike as well. Worth Checking out if near by.

A friend and I went to Kings Landing to go Kayaking, and oh my gosh that place was amazing. The people there were so nice and helpful. The water was so clear and cool, the trees came over the water and so beautiful. Would go again.

Totally worth the visit! You must book in advance. It was easy to create an account and book it online. We paid $6 for one car with 2 people. The place is beautiful, clear crystal fresh water. We spent the time at the natural pool and then went kayaking for about an hour. The minimum option for kayaking is 2 hours $50 which is a decent price. It was a nice experience to enjoy the wild life and the silence while going down the river. They have a cafe, a store, and 2 restrooms areas. There are also a few hiking trails and camping options.
