What is there to do at the springs?

Freshwater springs are the ultimate year-round Florida attraction. With Florida’s warm climate and the water temperature maintaining a constant 72 degrees, you can visit the springs 12 months out of the year.

In fact, the springs were actually Florida’s original tourist attraction. Long before people came to Florida to visit Disney World, Legoland, and Universal Studios, they hopped on steamboats to explore the waterways. Silver Springs was once one of the most popular tourist attractions in the entire country.

Today, many of Florida’s springs offer swimming, snorkeling, diving, canoeing, paddleboarding, tubing, and kayaking in constant temperatures of 72 degrees. Many springs also offer hiking trails and camping.  

Our kids love floating down the spring runs.  The current slowly takes you from the launching point to the ending point.  Once you get used to the cold water, it is extremely relaxing!  Of course, you can paddleboard, kayak or canoe on top of the water to avoid getting wet, all together!

Silver Springs and Wakulla Springs also offer glass-bottom boat tours that give you a unique view of the springs and the animals that inhabit them.

As I stated above, the springs are a year-round attraction in Florida.  During the winter months, hundreds of manatees flock to the springs.  Since the water is a constant 72 degrees, it is warmer than the nearby rivers.  Blue Spring seems to be a favorite for the West Indian Manatees.  In fact, as many as 360 manatees were recorded at the springs on March 1st, 2020!

De Leon Springs

When is the Best time to Visit? 

The springs are phenomenal year round!  If you want a glimpse of the manatees, come during the winter (January and February seem to be peak times).  If you want to kayak, canoe, or paddle board you can do so year round, but you’ll find it less crowded in the cooler months. 

If you’re brave, you can swim year round.  The water temperature is the same all year.  Florida’s weather is really inconsistent in the winter.  We can go from being in the 80s one day to the 50s the next.  As long as you can handle the outside temperatures when you exit the springs, you can absolutely swim in the springs 365 days a year.

Are There Alligators in the Springs?

Something visitors need to understand about Florida is that alligators can be found in any fresh body of water. Our state is home to more than a million alligators that live in lakes, rivers, marshes, canals, springs, and even ponds at places like Disney and golf courses.

There is always the possibility of seeing an alligator in a fresh body of water. In fact, as Floridians we just assume that they are lurking around.

However, alligators don’t tend to like all of the splishing and splashing. Think of them as cranky old people. They’ll try to stay as far away from humans as possible.

13 Best Florida Springs to Visit with Kids

Did you know that Florida has more than 700 natural springs? That is more than any other place on Earth! From the largest springs (Wakulla Springs which is the largest and deepest freshwater spring in the world) to tiny trickles, the springs hold eight billion gallons of water.

Most of the natural springs in Florida are in the north and central regions- meaning that they make for great day trips from Orlando, Daytona Beach, St. Augustine, and Jacksonville.

Florida has 15 state parks that preserve the crystal-clear springs and the creatures that call these springs home. They also help protect the animals that call these springs home. Florida’s natural springs are home to manatees, otters, Florida gar, alligators, eels, turtles, and countless specifies of fish.

Silver Springs and Wakulla Springs also offer glass-bottom boat tours.

13 Best Florida Springs to Visit with Kids

Three Sisters Springs- Crystal River, Florida

This park is home to absolutely crystal clear water. In fact, it’s so clean that you can see straight through it! Three Sister Springs is the perfect place to kayak, canoe, or paddleboard. Due to the high population of manatees, there are no motorized water vessels allowed inside of the park.

If you want to view the springs without getting wet, you can walk along the boardwalk at the Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge, which offers 57 acres of wetlands to explore.

Weeki Wachee Springs- Weeki Wachee, Florida

You won’t believe what makes this State Park so famous. Mermaids. Yes, mermaids! Weeki Wachee Springs is home to the world-famous mermaid show! The mermaids have been entertaining guests since 1947.

While you can kayak and canoe at the springs, swimming is not permitted. Don’t fret because the park is also home to Buccaneer Bay. Buccaneer Bay has white sandy beaches and water slides! If water slides aren’t your thing, you could also take a riverboat cruise.

Oh, and another cool thing about these springs? Weeki Wachee Springs has a bottom so deep that it has yet to be found!

Experienced divers can also explore the freshwater cave system that is the deepest in all of North America.

Ichetucknee Springs- Fort White, Florida

Ichetucknee Springs is one of the most well-known springs in the state. The Ichetucknee River is the ultimate place to grab an inner tube and simply let the current take you away. This no-frills adventure is fun for all ages. This is also a great spot for snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, canoeing, and paddleboarding.

The park is also home to Blue Hole Spring. Trust me, this is natural Florida at its finest!

The main spring (a.k.a. the Ichetucknee Head Spring) has been deemed a national natural landmark and is home to many of Florida’s most precious wildlife species.

Wakulla Springs- Wakulla Springs, Florida

Wakulla Springs State Park is located just 15 minutes south of Tallahassee. This is the deepest and largest freshwater spring in the world! After being featured in classic movies such as “Tarzan” and “Creature from the Black Lagoon” this spring became a popular tourist attraction.

This is the place to spend the day swimming, kayaking, snorkeling, and scuba diving. Experienced scuba divers can explore the system of underground caves. Be sure to take the famous river cruise during your visit!

It has also been deemed a National Natural Landmark and a National Archaeological and Historic District.

Ginnie Springs- High Springs, Florida

Like Ichetucknee, Ginnie Springs are some of the most popular in the state. This is pure, natural Florida! The park boasts magnificently clear turquoise water that entices visitors to dive in. Snorkeling, scuba diving, canoeing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and rafting are all popular here. To make things even easier, you can rent the equipment on-site!

Experienced divers can check out the caves.

Drinking is allowed at Ginnie Springs because it is privately owned, unlike other popular springs which are city or Florida State Parks. This means that it does tend to draw a more party-type crowd.

Madison Blue Springs- Lee, Florida

Voted the #1 swimming hole in the country by USA Today, Madison Blue Springs is considered to be one of the best springs in Florida. Head about 70 miles east of Tallahassee to this stunning blue, clear, freshwater spring. This popular swimming hole is 25 feet deep and 82 feet wide. You can hop on a raft to enjoy a float down the 150-foot run, or you can hop on a paddleboard or canoe to experience the springs from the water’s surface.

Like Three Sisters Springs, this is the perfect spot to swim, snorkel, and scuba dive. If you’re an experienced diver, you can even hit up some underwater caves!

Rainbow Springs- Dunnellon, Florida

Rainbow Springs is 90 miles northwest of Orlando making them the perfect spot for a day trip! These springs are more than 10,000 years old, making them one of the oldest and largest in the state! Native Floridians regularly visited these sapphire waters believing that they had healing powers. And, perhaps they do? The only way to find out is to get your toes wet!

Rainbow Springs State Park is a popular haven for tubing, snorkeling, scuba diving, and camping. There is a gigantic swimming area with white sand. The park is also home to nature trails that are surrounded by man-made waterfalls and natural gardens.

Alexander Springs

Alexander Springs- Altoona, Florida

Tucked away in the Ocala National Forest is Alexander Springs. This is one of the best places for families to visit because it is relatively shallow, gradient slow, slope eases swimmers into the stunning water.

Popular activities include swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, paddleboarding, and canoeing. This is also a great spot for hiking and camping.

Silver Springs, Silver Springs, Florida

Hop aboard a glass-bottom boat for a unique view of the spring’s creatures, including manatees! Or, hop in the water for a bit of swimming and snorkeling.

You can also rent a kayak or a canoe onsite if you’d like to add to the fun!

The Silver Springs is located in Ocala National Forest and are a notable archeological site. Be on the lookout for fossils!

Visitors are encouraged to arrive early in the day, as capacity is limited!

Gilchrist Blue Springs

Gilchrist Blue Springs- High Springs, Florida

Gilchrist Blue Springs is one of Florida’ youngest state parks. Located just 25 miles south of Lake City, this park is ideal for a day of snorkeling, swimming, and paddling. The park also has hiking trails.

This park is so much fun that it often fills up to capacity (okay…the fact that the park is smaller may have something to do with that, too). Plan on getting there very early or go late in the afternoon. Gilchrist Blue is considered to be one of Florida’s greatest hidden gems! If the park is full, we recommend heading to nearby Ginnie Springs. Ginnie Springs is larger so it is less likely to reach capacity.

Blue Spring- Orange City, Florida

Blue Spring is a state park located in Central Florida. What was once a hub for steamboats is now a winter refuge for manatee. Temperatures in the spring run remain at 72 degrees, year-round, making it a safe haven for West Indian manatee. In fact, as many as 360 manatees were recorded at the springs on March 1st, 2020! When the weather cools down, manatees congregate in the natural spring where the water temperature is warmer than in the surrounding areas.

This place is great for swimming, snorkeling, canoeing, paddleboarding, and kayaking. There are also trails that you can hike or bike.

The Old Spanish Sugar Mill at De Leon Springs State Park

De Leon Springs- De Leon Springs, Florida

De Leon Springs State Park is AMAZING!  The site is a former plantation and fancy schmancy hotel.  There are remnants of both periods of the properties history on the ground.  De Leon Springs was one of the first eco-parks in the state of Florida.  There are hiking trail, kayak and canoe rentals, and a swimming area.

 

The park is famous for its Old Sugar Mill Restaurant.  People come from all around to make their own pancakes at the griddle-topped tables.  It’s a super fun experience!

Salt Springs, Ocala National Forest

Salt Springs- Fort McCoy, Florida

Salt Springs is located in the Ocala National Forest.   Most of the swimming area is actually quite shallow- once you get away from the entrance area. The park also permits floats, which makes the springs extra fun for kids!  We found a cove across from the entranceway and it was the ideal spot for our littles.  The closer you get to the spring vent, the deeper- and rockier- the water gets.  

Are there alligators in the springs?

Something visitors need to understand about Florida is that alligators can be found in any fresh body of water. Our state is home to more than a million alligators that live in lakes, rivers, marshes, canals, springs, and even ponds at places like Disney and golf courses.

There is always the possibility of seeing an alligator in a fresh body of water. In fact, as Floridians we just assume that they are lurking around.

However, alligators don’t tend to like all of the splishing and splashing. Think of them as cranky old people. They’ll try to stay as far away from humans as possible.

Dealing with the Crowds

The springs get packed on holidays, weekends, and summer months. In fact, several springs often reach capacity early in the day. Plan accordingly. You may want to consider camping, if it is available, or staying at an Airbnb close to the springs so you can get there early.

For the least crowds, go during the off-season or shoulder season such as October or April.

Florida’s Gorgeous De Leon Springs

De Leon Springs State Park is one of the most stunning natural attractions in the state of Florida.  It’s one of those cool sights that focuses on both nature and history.  It is definitely a must-see if you’re in the area.  It is easily accessible as a day trip from Orlando, Daytona, or Jacksonville.

History of De Leon Springs

Long before De Leon Springs was a state park, it was a plantation known as Spring Garden Plantation.  The site was home to the first water-powered sugar mill in Florida.  The mill was built in 1832 and parts of the machinery and brickwork are preserved behind the restaurant (more on this later!).

This area was also home to the Seminole tribe who attacked the plantation in 1835.  During their raid, they destroyed the mill, stole cattle and slaves.  Two years later, General Zachary Taylor and his troops were finally able to drive the Seminoles out.  In 1849, a team of about 100 slaves reconstructed the mill and plantation and harvested cotton and sugar.

The plantation owner began providing supplies to the Confederate Army with supplies.  Upon hearing this, the Union troops destroyed the plantation in what was known as Birney’s Raid.  

When the war ended, Spring Garden became a tourist destination.  Visitors arrived via steamboat and railroad.  To help attract more tourists, the name was changed to Ponce de Leon Springs and locals claimed the springs were the Fountain of Youth.

The Ponce de Leon Springs Hotel and Casino was constructed.  Though it only had 14 rooms, it quickly became a hot spot for wealthy Northern visitors.  By the 1950s the site featured tropical gardens, a jungle cruise, a tram tour, oh yeah… and a water skiing elephant.  

In 1982, the state of Florida took over the attraction and attempted to make it a little less cheesy.  Today, the park system maintains 625 acres surrounding the springs.

What is there to do at De Leon Springs?

The park is part of the Great Florida Birding and Wildlife Trail.  If you keep your eyes peeled, you may be able to spot a bald eagle!

The parks offers a 50-minute eco/history boat tour on the Spring Garden Run.  Visitors that are on the waiting list for the restaurant can hop on the boat tour without losing their place in line.  A minimum of eight passengers is required for the tour to commence.

The springs are also popular for canoeing, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, and swimming.  There are canoes and kayaks available to rent on the property.

Swimming and snorkeling is permitted in the natural pool area but not in the Spring Run due to boats and alligators.  The water is a constant 72 degrees.

There is a gorgeous half-mile paved hiking trail with interpretive signs not far from the restaurant.  The Wild Persimmon Hiking Trail is a four-mile loop where you might spot deer, turkeys, wild hogs, and the elusive Florida black bear.

Old Spanish Sugar Mill Restaurant

In the early 1900s, a structure was built on top of the foundation of the 1830s mill.  The building was later converted to the Old Spanish Sugar Mill Restaurant commonly referred to as the Sugar Mill Restaurant.  The restaurant features griddle tables where visitors prepare their own pancakes.  Breakfast and lunch are available.  The restaurant is open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekdays and 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on weekends and holidays.  They are closed on Thanksgiving and Christmas Day.

Visiting Information

  • The park is open from 8 AM until sunset 365 days a year.

Fees:

  • $6 per vehicle: 2-8 people
  • $4 per vehicle: one person only
  • $4 per motorcycle
  • $2 per person for pedestrians, bicyclists and extra passengers

Alexander Springs- One of Florida’s Most Stunning Springs

Florida is home to some pretty incredible springs, and Alexander Springs just so happens to be one of the most beautiful!  Alexander Springs is located in the Ocala National Forest.  It is well known as a hotspot for camping, swimming, snorkeling, hiking, canoeing, and paddleboarding.  Our favorite thing about this spring is the fact that it is super kid-friendly.  It is the ultimate hangout for a sunny Florida day!

Our favorite part about Alexander Springs it that it is totally kid friendly.  There are steps that lead down to the spring.  This is a great spot for little ones to get acclimated to the temperature of the water.  The water is a constant 72-degrees which can be quite an adjustment in the summer months.  Once you’re in the water, it isn’t exceptionally deep (but still deep enough that they can swim).  The launch site is also very close to the swimming hole, making it easy to go back and forth between the two.

Are There Alligators in the Springs?

Yes! There are most definitely alligators in the springs. And snakes. In fact, a rule of thumb here in Florida is that you should assume that there is an alligator in every body of freshwater.  That being said, alligators typically want nothing to do with you.  They are completely content laying on the bank of the spring catching some rays.  As long as you don’t approach them, you’re typically fine.

Even during the summer, when the springs are jam-packed with people, there will be alligators present.  They tend to situate themselves outside of the run (where you can’t swim or tube) so that they don’t have to deal with you.  Chances are, if you kayak, canoe, or paddle board, you’ll spot a gator sunning on the banks.

Where is Alexander Springs located?

The springs are a part of the Ocala National Forest.  Alexander Springs is easily accessible as a day trip from Orlando, Daytona, and Jacksonville.

What is there to do at Alexander Springs?

This is an excellent site for kayaking, canoeing, paddleboarding, snorkeling, and diving.  If you bring your own water vessels, there is a handy loading area at the head of the parking lot that makes it easy to unload your equipment.  The park also has carts to help you transport your kayak, canoe, or paddleboard to the launch site.  There are kayaks and canoes available for rent, seasonally, at the concession stand.

Swimming, snorkeling, and diving is permitted in the designated areas.  

There is a 0.9 mile interpretive trail called the Timucuan Trail.  The loop consists of a shady boardwalk that travels through the forest along the spring run. 

Nearby Springs

When is the Best time to Visit? 

The springs are phenomenal year round!  If you want a glimpse of the manatees, come during the winter (January and February seem to be peak times).  If you want to kayak, canoe, or paddle board you can do so year round, but you’ll find it less crowded in the cooler months. 

If you’re brave, you can swim year round.  The water temperature is the same all year.  Florida’s weather is really inconsistent in the winter.  We can go from being in the 80s one day to the 50s the next.  As long as you can handle the outside temperatures when you exit the springs, you can absolutely swim in the springs 365 days a year.

Open 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. daily; may close earlier seasonally. Campers have 24-hour access to the gates with an access code. 

  • Annual Day-Use Pass: $70 + tax
  • Single Day-Use Fees: Weekdays $7 per person; weekends $10 per person.

Stunning Blue Spring State Park With Kids

Blue Spring State Park will always hold a special place in our heart because it was the first spring that we visited with the kids.  It is an amazing place to swim, tube, paddle, snorkel, and even manatee watch!

What is Blue Spring State Park?

Blue Spring State Park is located in Central Florida. What was once a hub for steamboats is now a winter refuge for manatees. Temperatures in the spring run remain at 72 degrees, year-round, making it a safe haven for West Indian manatee. In fact, when we visited in January of 2023, there were 625 manatees in the run!! When the weather cools down, manatees congregate in the natural spring where the water temperature is warmer than in the surrounding areas.

What are the highlights?

  • Swimming/tubing in the spring
  • Snorkeling and scuba diving
  • Paddle boarding, kayaking, or canoeing (available for rent)
  • Hiking or biking the 3.6 miles (one way) Pine Island Trail
  • Guided river boat cruise
  • Camping

Things to Know…

  • Arrive early! The park frequently reaches capacity during the week and weekends during the winter and summer months. (see “Our Experience” for more info).
  • The park is open from 8 AM until sundown.
  • The cost to enter is $5 per vehicle.
  • You can rent inner tubes at the park.
  • If you bring your own inner tube, you can pay between $1 and $3 to have it inflated for you.
  • The water is a refreshing 72 degrees year-round
  • There is typically a food truck on-site however, you can also purchase burgers, hotdogs, corndogs, nachos, soft pretzels, etc. at the cafe.

Where is Blue Spring State Park located?

Physical Address: 2100 W French Ave, Orange City, FL 32763

Our Experience

Y’all, Blue Spring State Park is poppin’!  The springs open at 8 AM, 7 days a week. On Saturday morning we woke up and headed to the springs. We arrived just before 8:30 and they were already at capacity. Man, this place fills up quickly!

We returned later that day, at about 4:00 and the park had started to empty out. Since we weren’t going to be there long, we didn’t bother to break out the floats. We grabbed “Smiley’s” boogie board and put floatation vests on all of the kids and made the short trek from the picnic area, down the boardwalk, to the spring. The water felt freezing when we first got in, but our bodies quickly adjusted to the temperatures. It was amusing to watch everyone’s initial reaction to hitting the water. We floated down the spring run to the exit landing, which was just a short distance away.

Our son “82” hated it, at first, most likely because it was the first time he’s ever been in 72 degrees water. “Stinky” quickly adjusted to the water and was fine after the first initial tears. Smiley was in heaven!

Day Two

The next morning, we got to the park at 7:27 which was 33 minutes before the park was scheduled to open. At that point, we were the 72nd car in line (yes, I counted). One of the rangers told me that they were going to cut the line off at 150 cars. Once the park opened, it took us about 30 minutes to reach the ranger station to pay. The admission was $5.

Fortunately, we were able to stake out a picnic table where we could leave our stuff and have breakfast and lunch. We quickly saw that most people made this an all-day event! The park filled up rather quickly, we were fortunate to have been able to claim this spot.

Click here to order this awesome float!

The park has floats that you can rent. We brought our own, however. You can pay between $1 and $3 (depending on the size of the raft) to have your raft inflated. To me, this was well worth saving all of my hot air.

The kids adjusted to the water much more quickly on day two. They loved being able to ride in our float, kick their feet in the cool water, and check out the fish that swam by. We saw several different fish in the spring ranging from gar to tilapia.

After a couple of rides down the spring run, we decided to take a walk. We spotted hundreds of fish and even a decent-sized alligator, not far from where we had been swimming.

St. John’s River Cruise

After lunch, we hopped on a boat and took a one-hour “cruise” on the St. John’s River. It was a little slow-paced for the kid’s taste. The captain was very knowledgeable and stopped several times to point out various birds along the way. We didn’t spot any manatee or alligators on the river.

After our river cruise, we took one last run down the springs and called it a day. I think it’s safe to say that we all had an incredible time. Hitting the springs is the perfect way to beat the Florida heat!

 

Our Winter Experience

As I mentioned above, during the winter months, manatees flock to the spring because the water is warmer there than in the river.  Over the last few years, the number of manatees that migrate to the wildlife refuge have skyrocketed!  On our visit (1/15/23) there were 625 manatees in the run!  When we originally published this post in 2020, it was a big deal to have 300 manatees in the spring.

The park opened at 8 am and when we pulled in at 9:15.  At that time, there was already a long line waiting to get inside the park.  It only took us about 15 minutes to get inside the park.  

We walked out on to the floating dock, along the boardwalk and were able to see hundreds of manatees.  It was pretty cool!  Admittedly, it was harder for the kids to see the manatees because they often just looked like shadows in the water, unless the manatees were surfacing.

While it was cool for them to see, it was definitely more entertaining for adults.
