Natural Springs

The Breathtaking Springs of Citrus County

Florida’s natural wonder like no other. "Is it real or am I dreaming?" The thought will cross your mind more than once when you first see one of Florida’s incredible natural springs. Columns of sunlight reflect off of glistening swarms of fish and manatees in an incredibly transparent topaz environment that defies imagination.

The names here are legendary: Three Sisters Springs, Homosassa Springs, Seven Sisters Springs and the seventy springs of Kings Bay. "Nothing I had been told prepared me for what I saw," wrote Florida’s foremost naturalist Archie Carr when he first saw Homosassa Springs in the 1950’s. If ever there was a Fountain of Youth, this must be the place.

Prepare to be amazed.
