It's free to enter the park. Great for walking and exploring the local outdoors. The path is about 2 miles round trip. You can see Floridian vegetation, turtles, fish, and local birds. It also has places to swim, kayak, and paddle in the crystal clear spring water. There are signs posted throughout the trail that gives information about the local trees and animals. Very educational and relaxing walk!

State park within 2 miles of my home. They have great walking trails into the local forest, camping, kayak rentals, boat ramp, and swimming in the bay. Here you will see all kinds of wildlife. If you rent a kayak you can paddle up Rocky Creek, which is a fresh water spring that runs into the bay. It's crystal clear water will allow you to see turtles, fish and the occasional alligator! During your paddle upstream you will also encounter bald eagles and ospreys looking down on you searching for their next fish. It is a local favorite and perfect for the adventurous!

Amazing experience! Not many locals know about this one. You go into an enclosure with a wolf pack. It is incredible and the staff is very informative. There are rules for what you can wear, a height restriction, and age restriction so please read their website. Not many people can say they were in the middle of a wolf pack.

Awesome kayak experience down a crystal clear creek. This is an all day paddle through beautiful forests usually lasting about 4 to 6 hours. Check out the website for kayak prices. I have done this numerous times and it's always a great time!
