Review & FAQ:

Voted by USA Today as one of the best swimming holes in the United States, the Madison Blue Springs State Park is revered by many as one of the Florida’s best springs to visit. Pines and hardwoods surround the crystal clear, inviting springs, which measure around 25 feet deep and 82 feet wide. Visitors can rent canoes to explore the park, as well as possibly get a glimpse of manatees swimming in the river, while diver can go on a more off-the-beaten-path, self-guided trip through the vast cave system. There’s also a small beach area with picnic tables.
