Florida Springs
More than 1,000 freshwater springs can be found in Florida, making it the world’s largest concentration of natural springs. These springs are produced when groundwater from the Floridan Aquifer system seeps through the limestone and emerges as crystal clear water sources. The majority of these springs are situated in the northern and central parts of the state and more specifically along the Suwannee River, the Santa Fe River and the St. Johns River. The largest and the most popular are Silver Springs, Wakulla Springs, Ichetucknee Springs and Blue Spring. The temperature of Florida’s springs stay constant throughout the year, averaging 72°F and are popular for swimming, snorkeling and wildlife watching.
