About Blue Spring State Park
About 102 million gallons of water pour daily from a spring feeding the St. Johns River, the largest of its kind along that waterway. The consistent 73-degree water draws Florida manatees to gather here in winter months. Visitors can paddle, dive, fish, hike, or swim in the same waters, with camping and wildlife viewing also available on the grounds.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
