Having lived in Gainesville for many years we always had gatherings and camping at what is now Gilchrist Blue Springs State Park. It was private back then and when they closed the gates it became your private paradise. I'm glad to see it brought into the state park system so it can be preserved for everyone to enjoy. I've visited all these parks. Growing up in Orlando Wekiwa and Rock Springs were the home swimming holes. If you don't get in line before 7am at Rock Springs in the hot months you're not getting in. If you do, start at the spring head and walk down the run. Scoop and sift the fine bottom and you'll be amazed at the prehistoric sharks teeth you'll find. As always, respect nature. Take nothing but pictures and leave nothing but foot prints so many can enjoy these wonders.

Ginnie springs is also very gorgeous plus there is a place I use to go as a kid with my dad when he was still alive it's called juniper run it's on I19 . On the weekends it is party Central for the adults and children and a lot of air boats . And what makes it so cool is when you walk maybe 150 feet from where you get in you can drink . Because it is on the border of 2 counties . Which are lake county and Marion county

TY for your kind feedback! You haven't seen Florida until you've seen the springs :)

[@bettygreenhansen]

My favorite springs to swim close to my home is Ponce de Leon Springs State Park (day use only), but busy holidays = reduced visibility = decreased enjoyment. They just expanded the parking area there and that can only lead to more congestion. 😬 The most beautiful springs I’ve ever been tubing on is Itchetucknee Springs State Park near Gainesville (no camping, but O’Leno State Park is very close by and is a beautiful place to camp). We camped and kayaked at Silver Springs State Park near Ocala, and it was beautiful as well. We take visitors to Wakulla Springs State Park near Tallahassee. We have stayed at the rustic lodge there (highly recommend) and the glass-bottom boat tour down the river to look for alligators and other wildlife is always enjoyable. Thanks again! I can’t wait to try your recommendations! (I have been to Wekiva but that was more than 20 years ago now.)

[@backyardkayakingcamping8778]

[@LatinJck]

I went to school at Jacksonville University and we used to frequent Ichetuckee Springs State Park during our breaks. It was amazing, beautiful crystal waters - located going West through I-10 going through Lake City and then heading South. Easy parking, and we would rent inner tubes. The water was always refreshing and cool and we would gently start Spring Head entrance and end at the South Takeout area. As with any wild preserve area, be careful there are water moccasins in the area. One time while I was in the inner tube one swam across the river crossing from one end of the stream and just a couple inches away from me while my feet where up in the inner tube. They generally tend to stay away from people because of all the noise and commotion as you have families, friends, going down the spring talking and enjoying the spring.

I’ve stayed at the campground there as well and it was just all around a great place! The only thing about Silver springs is there is no swimming in the spring but our boat driver asked if anyone went to a nearby spot that allows you to swim with manatees, many of the guests on our boat had already gone. I’m not sure what that spot is but I’m sure it wouldn’t be hard to figure out.

It is larger acreage wise (with at least a mile of primitive site's along the SantaFe river) and has 5 springs (technically 6) with 2 of them Mag 1and the clearest water in Florida. It is a Zoo in the Summer but in the winter the water is warm and you'll feel like you have it all to yourself. I live close by and dive it 30-40 times a year. Manatee, Troy and Lafayette Blue Springs are worth a mention, Not sure if Troy allows tents. Still this was a good Top 5 list.

Thanks for making this video. I wish you would have told which ones are for tents only, such as Alexander Springs, and which have electric, water hookups. I have been to several of these Springs, but only during the day, not camping. They are all beautiful.

Yes! Stay near by as they are at capacity very quickly

[@SBassett1944]

I was raised here in Dunnellon, Florida. Rainbow River or Blue Run as we called it, is truly beautiful and clean. Icy cold to swim in and refreshing during summer heat. My grandaddy help to build one of the first waterfalls. Go. You will love it.

[@CampTravelExplore]

Love love love, the Rainbow river

[@paddleboardgeorgia]

Great places to paddle board for sure thanks for the info.

Rock Springs Run at Kelly Park is one of our favs for paddle boarding! We have a episode on it called "Florida's most underrated campground" if you want to check it out as I got footage from a kayaking trip there!

Check out tubing on the Ichnatucknee River just north of Gainesville Florida. GlennFHoward

I think Blue springs was the best. Not because we found 6 ripe weed plants, it's because at night, you dont need light because of the millions of fireflies at night! Absolutely dream like.

We lover Silver Springs state park, it would have made the list if they allowed swimming at the spring! Beautiful park! Thank You for watching and we would love for you to subscribe, TY if you have already!

[@DC8223]

Alexander Springs deserves an honorable mention LOL, but Juniper Springs, and Wekiva Falls should definitely have made the list

We have a Juniper review link in the description, maybe check it out. Looking back, we would have had some almost made its in the video. Alexander Ginnie, Juniper, and Ichetucknee. Hope you subscribe to our channel, Thank You if you have already. Appreciate your feedback!

Hey you should check out Weeki Wachee springs state park there is no camping put it a magnitude one spring and it’s the only spring fed water park in Florida also it’s got mermaids

We love Weeki Wachee, one of the best kayaking experiences I have had. We plan on doing a review there when we go back!

[@GetSmartydontcha]

Weeki Wachee is a wonderful place. Love the mermaid show and the water park is great. Buccaneer Bay. Homasassa Springs is near by and that place is nice, too. Very pretty boat ride.

[@PG-sg2oo]

Sulfur smell really bad there!

@@PG-sg2oo Hmm. It didn't smell like that either time we were there. Fluke?

You left out Crystal River ... I took Scuba classes there in the 1980's There is a 80 foot deep straight down cavern you can scuba down to Spring fed wonder land.

A little girl got bit by a Pygmy Rattlesnake at Blue Springs Campground last week... Remember to be aware of what's around you at any Campground here in FL

[@CampTravelExplore]

Totally agree! I think some forget they are out in their environmnet when they camp! Thanks for watching!!

[@jamesleonard2754]

I liked it, as I have been to most of the ones in the list, and live 25 mins. From the Rainbow River..I am curious as to why you didn't mention Juniper Springs..

[@CampTravelExplore]

Loved Juniper, we have a link to that review in this description. It was close and if they had electric and water hookups, it may have made the difference. Ichetucknee was a close one as well, but the campground closest to it, is actually outside of the state park.

[@lesterhall5145]

Seen lots of pigmy rattles at salt springs campground.

[@archangele1]

I live outside High Springs and I have diamondback rattlers where I live and they are 3 - 5 feet long. Those babies can kill a person but they are generally not as aggressive as the pygmy rattlers seem to be. Still, you need to pretty much step on one before they will strike. Big thing is that dogs tend to bother these snakes. Two dogs perusing my yard have been bitten and killed since I have lived there. So, they are excellent at removing those annoying roving pitbulls.

[@Alkrio]

When we visited Rainbow Springs park back in 2017, designated swimming area was so small and amount of ppl was huge, it was literally impossible to swim there. For me it was worst Florida spring experience. It was much better option to go to KP Hole, rent a kayak and paddle to some nice place to swim in Rainbow river. You can paddle all the way up to Rainbow Springs park.

[@CampTravelExplore]

You are right about the kayaking at Rainbow river, yes some of the best I have done!

[@fla-gypsy57]

The swimming area at Rainbow is the worst around. This video is not made by someone very knowledgeable concerning camping at Florida springs

[@EchoSigma6]

I’ve been to FL twice for family vacations and never knew about these beautiful springs. We’re not campers but I’m sure there are local properties to rent. Thanks for the info!
