Location
Details
In the 1940s, it was a popular private spa and swimming resort, with a water slide and Ferris wheel. Today, crowds gather on hot summer days – the spring is 72F year-round – and for the annual “Red Belly Day” each May (yes, belly flops included).
The park is also a stop for paddlers on the Suwannee River Wilderness Trail, for bicyclists on the Nature Coast Trail, and for divers looking to relax in the 65 million gallon flow as it pours out into the river.
