11 Florida's most incredible natural wonders

Beautiful beaches, beautiful nature, this is what little Florida is famous for. We have compiled a list of 11 places that are worth visiting for all lovers of natural wonders.

1 Falling Waters State Park, Chipley

This park is spread over 70 hectares. Here you can admire the 20-meter waterfall. No one still knows exactly where the water is flowing from the waterfall. You can also see the natural shelters in which the Indians hid during the Seminole Wars. The best time to travel to the waterfall is late winter and early spring, when the water flow is strongest. In addition to the waterfall, in the park you will find a butterfly garden, picnic areas, camping and fishing, a small lake with a beach.

2. Florida Caverns State Park, Marianna

The caves always attract people with the mysterious twilight, quiet silence and the beauty of natural architecture. Caves in the reserve Caverns State Park are the only caves in Florida that are open to tourists. Underground waters, seeping through limestone, wash it out and form odd forms - stalactites, stalagmites, stone rivers and basins.

3. Torreya State Park, Bristol

This park in Northwest Florida is home to a very rare tree, after which it is named. This park is very picturesque. We recommend to visit it in the fall, when the trees become yellow-red.

4. Everglades national park

One of the most unique parks in Florida, besides here is the largest tropical desert in the country. The national park is home to more than a hundred unique plants and animals that you cannot see anywhere else (kite-snake, American stork, pelicans, cormorants, crocodiles, and so on).

5. Crystal river

The river got its name because of the incredibly clear water that comes from warm underground sources. Here underwater life flourishes and you can meet dolphins, turtles, blue crabs, various types of birds and fish. Wildlife Park Crystal river - This is one of the few places in the world where you can take a canoe or kayak, swim with manatees in their natural habitat.

6. Big Shoals State Park, White Springs

Rafting on the Swanni River is a wave of emotions and fresh impressions that will be remembered for a long time. The river flows among limestone cliffs up to 25 meters in height, forming rapids and waterfalls and striking tourists with breathtaking landscapes that you cannot find anywhere else in Florida. According to the guidance of qualified instructors, you can master rowing on rafts, canoes, kayaks and learn how to overcome water obstacles properly. In addition to rafting, there is everything for active recreation and observation of wildlife: more than 45 miles of hiking routes, cycling, and horseback riding.

7. John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park, Key Largo

John Pennekamp Park The coral reef is one of the best places in Florida where you can see live reef and all kinds of marine life. If you do not want to scuba dive, then you can explore the reef in a glass bottom boat.

8. Devil's Millhopper Geological State Park

Here is the deepest pit (36 meters), which arose many centuries ago. It is filled with water from streams that flow from the tops of the mountains. The beauty of nature, silence and the weak splash of water fascinate. A long wooden staircase descends to the very bottom of the pit.

9. Blowing Rocks Preserve, Hobe Sound

This oceanfront nature reserve is famous for having the largest limestone deposit on the east coast of the United States. The reserve got its name due to the fact that during high tide and strong waves, water is pushed out through the holes in the limestone, washed up by the waves, and rises up to a height of 15 meters, resembling geysers. To see this natural spectacle, it is best to clarify the time of the highest tide before the trip. After admiring the bizarre limestone formations and making beautiful photos for memory, you can visit the nursery of local plants and the butterfly garden, look into the educational center to learn more about preserving the unique nature of the reserve.

10. Fairchild Oak, Bulow Creek State Park, Ormond Beach

You will be delighted with the size of this mighty ancient oak. This tree is more than 400 years old, it grows in a park Bulow creek and is one of the oldest living oaks in the southern United States.

11. Devil's Den, Williston

A hole in the ground opens the entrance to the cave, where there is an amazingly beautiful lake with a depth of 22 meters, which is powered by an underground source. The water in the lake is warm, and on cold days steam comes out of the hole. Hence the name of this place - Devil's den ("Devil's Lair"). Thousands of years ago, the upper part of the cave collapsed, and until the cavity was filled with water, the cave was a trap from which animals and people had fallen there could not escape. The remains of prehistoric animals that have fallen there are found at the bottom of the cave to this day. Just splashing in the lake does not work, but there are organized sessions for diving and snorkeling (for adults and children older than 6 years). But not for divers, too, will not be boring - above the cave there is everything you need to organize a family picnic.
