Wild Florida takes a dip underground
to explore the fascinating world of Florida’s Springs!

Defender of the Everglades Marjorie Stoneman Douglas described them as “bowls of liquid light.” Famous for their gin-clear water, a visit to one of Florida’s more than 700 freshwater springs is like a walk back in time – to a place where primeval hammocks line spring-fed rivers, providing a unique habitat for many species. Wild Florida journeys to North and Central Florida to dive in and explore springsheds and underwater caves – right in the heart of springs country.
