For Floridians, it isn’t just the beaches that deserve all of our admiration in terms of natural gems. The springs also offer a bit of reprieve from the warm weather and satisfaction as far as visual enjoyment. But there is one spring, in particular, that might have the most transparent water in the entire state – Ginnie Springs. In fact, looking at it, it is almost too beautiful to be real.
Situated along the stunning Santa Fe River is one of the most stunning springs in the state of Florida - Ginnie Springs.
There are so many different ways to enjoy this natural gem, from tubing and kayaking to canoeing or just swimming. Guests can spend a weekend there by reserving a campsite and enjoying the beauty of nature for days.
The visibility of this water is really what makes it such a marvel, allowing divers to experience something otherworldly. Even famed explorer Jacques Cousteau himself noted the springs as having “visibility forever!”
For one low admission price, guests can enter the springs and enjoy an afternoon of outdoor recreational fun or simply float their way through paradise.
