I go every Saturday when we can

[@thetoneman]

@@perlamendoza9745 that's awesome. Wonderful spot. 😁🐟🐟🐟🐟

[@georgeclausen2408]

Never made it over to Ponce de Leon, but frequently went to Ginnie and the other springs around High Springs, Floriida. There's nothing like the Florida springs!

[@thetoneman]

You know it‼️ 😁👍

[@SandinsLu]

I am becaming a "Spring enthusiast" and watching your amazing footage made me feel like dropping everything and drive to this Paradise. I will definitely add this one in my list. Thank you.

[@thetoneman]

Thanks! 😁 Ponce De Leon Florida has other springs including Vortex Spring and Morrison Springs. I have videos for them as well in this playlist kzbin.info/aero/PLy5MPmGn-OU2XQ26mmrwIQWWLgbIlsCZ9

[@EverydayAdventures123]

wow!! - The footage of the snake 🐍underwater illustrates how amazingly clear the water is.

[@thetoneman]

Thanks! It is amazingly clear 💦

[@bradhamilton8542]

I've been to several of the springs of the FL panhandle. I love all of them. This is the first one I ever went to as a kid about 30 yrs ago. So beautiful.

[@thetoneman]

Yep, first one we went to with our kids. I really like Morrison Springs a lot also. 😁

[@bradhamilton8542]

@@thetoneman yeah, Morrison beautiful. Very undeveloped which makes it really cool. The cypress trees growing in that gorgeous water.

[@malinajones1435]

One of the most beautiful places I've vacationed with my family wonderful memories

[@thetoneman]

Agree 💯%

[@sweet2thasoul228]

Growing up my family would visit De Leon Springs every summer. We would have a blast there and stay all day. Awesome video!!!!

[@thetoneman]

Thanks so much. It's a great place to relax, enjoy the hot sun and cold water 😊

[@kaylamartin8291]

I live 5 minutes from the springs and I go swimming there a lot love the cold water

[@thetoneman]

That's awesome! Do you visit Morrison Springs as well?

[@suewinter3693]

Great video! Spent many a hot summer day there as a kid, and I can still hear the uncontrollable shriek emitted upon that first jump into the COLDCOLDCOLD water.

[@thetoneman]

Pamela Winterrowd Thanks! Wonderful memories 😉👍🐟🐟🐟📷👀

[@Oxford322]

What a beautiful place

[@thetoneman]

Yes it is. This was a good day. 🙂

[@scottibee2167]

Thank you for sharing this!! I'm going there this weekend and wanted to know what I was in store for. This is great!!

[@thetoneman]

Glad your liked the video... have fun! 😁👍

[@ChuckyBeaver]

Yes we finally went here too! My skin was so soft after swimming in the cold water! We didn’t bring anything to eat so we left and went to the “lunch box “ a few miles away from there. It’s a road side food truck. Good BBQ sandwich.

[@thetoneman]

That sounds fun and awesome 😋

[@goprodawg5841]

Amazing video bud! Clarity looks awesome!

[@thetoneman]

Thanks buddy! Clarity would have been even better had we gotten there earlier. The early bird gets the clarity 😉

[@WanderingKnapps]

Once again. Something I didn't know was there. You make us love FL more and more each video. We are selling everything next summer to move to Florida and buy a boat to live on.

[@thetoneman]

Wandering Knapps Love these Florida springs 😃

[@americaru9368]

Beautiful 👍👍👍

[@thetoneman]

America Ru Yes, it is. Thanks. 😊

[@sandymitchell1606]

Cool video! Extraordinary! I am going here tomorrow but I will not be in the area where Mr. brown water snake is🤗😂

[@thetoneman]

Thanks so much! Yea, that snake was a little down a ways in the creek. Have fun! 😁

[@lelandstreasurechest1773]

Awesome footage my friend. It's about 30 miles from me and I've never been. It's on my bucket list now. Thanks for sharing.

[@thetoneman]

Leland's Treasure Chest Thanks Leland! It's small, but a great spot to visit. There is a shallow stream where you can use your metal detector. 😉

[@lelandstreasurechest1773]

TheToneman - Gulf Coast Snorkeling cool. Thanks for letting me know.

[@marshallwise3605]

Thanks for sharing!

[@thetoneman]

Welcome. I'm glad you liked the video 😊

[@cybersecurity4462]

What happened to the trees in the spring? It looks very different now & I was curious if anyone knew? Ty for the great video of such a beautiful spring 💚

[@thetoneman]

Thanks so much! I'm not sure about the trees. They seem the same since I've been going thete but that has only been in the past 6 years.

[@danielajones1984]

I live about an hour away from this place and haven't been here in the longest time. Used to go there 3-4 times a month and eat at the sugar mill for breakfast. Love being in the water but cannot stand touching the bottom or the sides of the wall because it feels a little slimy. I'm always wearing water shoes just because when you have to get out you have to put your feet on the slimy stairs and I get so grossed out. Hope you and your family had lots of fun.

[@thetoneman]

Thanks! We had a great time. 😁

[@fathercarras28]

I like your video for candid and simple

[@thetoneman]

Adriana Godoy Thank you 😊

[@SavedGasMan27]

Nice video! The snake would have scared me though. Lol

[@thetoneman]

SavedGasMan27 Surprised me for sure 😲... the snake was up the stream further away from the main swimming area.

[@pamelagonzalez9567]

wow! I live in Florida and never heard of that place it is beautiful looks like a lot of fun ... so glad you dropped by my channel... for sure am gonna enjoy yours 😄thanks

[@thetoneman]

Pam's Great Outdoors Adventures Yes, it's great and others springs in that area as well... Vortex and Morrison 😁

[@AyooLette]

loved the video! my boyfriend and I are traveling there in about a week or so? did everyone have to provide their own floaters, boats for canoeing, life jackets etc? I wanted to make sure I had everything I needed

[@thetoneman]

Thanks so much. Yes, you will need to bring your own floats, snorkeling gear etc. I hope you all have a great time! 😀

[@dublinjazz1]

Truly spectacular, but you lost me at the snake, lol. I have a crippling and irrational fear of them.

[@thetoneman]

Thanks! A harmless water snake... but a snake non the less. 😁

[@csataproductions]

Great Video.. Is the water really as cold as they say? What kind of snake was that? poisonous?

[@thetoneman]

Thanks! The water is 68° year round. The snake was a brown water snake and non-poisonous.

[@csataproductions]

@@thetoneman Thank you.. good to know its non poisonous. 68. that still sounds cold lol

[@LittleBirdieTravel]

awesome!

Wow! Great footage, do you use a filter on the lens? what kind of mount do you use while your swimming?

[@thetoneman]

Thanks! I didn't use a filter and I use a floating extension pole called Gopole. 🦀📷🐠🐡📷😀

[@Seevic2001]

Do the place provide all types of floating devices or I gotta bring my own stuff?

[@tonybradford7541]

Sometimes, there are vendors that you can rent from. But to be safe I would bring my own. 👍

[@arigaengland5005]

Hello Excellent video!

Any hotel recommendations close to this place?

I know there are a few hotels in the Ponce De Leon area but I don't have any personal recommendations.

@@campingfishingloveeveryday3229 back where? Down the creek? 🤔

Are you using your GoPro Hero 6 with or without housing. I read lot of complaints for leaks and GoPro not owning to it. And am being in India i don't think GoPro will ever going to cover.

[@thetoneman]

Saurabh Sarang I don't use a housing and have not had a issue with leaks. My HERO5 didn't leak either. GoPro support had always done me right. 😀👍Thanks for watching

[@shallah777]

Is the water cold even in July?

Yes, the natural springs maintain a constant temperature of about 68° year round. It's refreshing! 🌞💦🥶

[@BREEZY.67]

Last week I went there after visiting DeFuniak springs and I was expecting it to be nice and refreshing like DeFuniak Springs but as soon as I jumped in the water I was proven wrong

[@thetoneman]

I know it's been mucky with all the recent rain water runoff, but what was your experience? 🤔

[@BREEZY.67]

@@thetoneman At DeFuniak springs it was mucky but about 8 feet down it turned clear but at Ponce De Leon it was Crystal Clear

EmeraldWordCool Yep, a cool 68 degrees year round. Detailed in the video description. Thanks for pointing that out. 😉

[@RammyEverything]

Very. I went today

[@LilliesforSeverus]

As expected, yes. It’s spring fed.

[@averydizzle]

Way different and much smaller than I remember Deleon spring being. This looks like the blue or silver springs not Deleon.

[@thetoneman]

Definitely Ponce De Leon Springs State Park... it's not very big at all. Nearby Morrison Springs is much bigger.

[@SLSmith-gy1he]

Gators?

[@thetoneman]

I haven't seen one here, but its Florida and gators frequent the waters here. Have to be careful. 🐊😳⚠️

[@JacobDyal]

I went there and there was a baby gator in the water that they had to get out

Just pray you don't get the brain eating amoeba.

[@thetoneman]

Thanks... I appreciate all the prayers I can get. I would probably die from a shark attack or lightning bolt before that happens. 😉

[@chrisharris1969]

@@thetoneman have you heard of anyone contracting the brain eating amoeba from Florida springs?

[@thetoneman]

@@chrisharris1969 Not in any Springs that I am aware because the water is so cold. The flesh eating virus thrives in warm waters, so you're probably safe there.
