Springs in Florida
On this website, you will find only the Best Florida Springs. I have done a lot of research on each one of them and came up with a list. There are over 700 springs in Florida but most are either too small or places where it's too difficult to reach. Some of them are even at the bottom of rivers and you need scuba diving equipment to reach them. I am mainly looking for ones that are popular and a lot of people visit. However, I will list other ones that may not be too popular. Bookmark my website and keep checking back for newly added Springs in Florida.

Save the Manatees
People who want to see manatees in Florida is popular. I can see why the manatees are different from most other water animals. They are cute and resemble big fat cows without legs. I guess that's how they get their nickname: sea cows. The manatees have a huge problem: humans. As we all know from the photos we have seen, these animals are getting maimed and cut up by boats. The little ones even die. We need to bring more awareness to this problem and try to help do something about it. Manatees getting killed by boats isnt the major cause of deaths though.

Swim with Manatees
If you go to certain rivers, you can swim with manatees in Florida. Crystal River is the most popular river where you can swim with them. The best time to do this would be in the winter near the spring heads where you are almost certain to find them. They like to go near the springs for the warmer waters.
