It can be the same springs for both categories or separate.

My favorite for both categories is Rock Springs Run, which can be accessed via Kelly Park or King's Landing.

I want to do a lot of exploring this summer, so looking to hear your favorites too.

Swimming/tubing - Rock Springs @ Kelly Park. So many good memories.

Canoeing - Juniper Springs

I've never actually been kayaking or paddleboarding at any of the springs; canoeing is the closest I've come.

Awesome, I'll check out Juniper Springs. I just bought inflatable paddle boards.

Crystal River... but most of the time I spend there is underwater letting the salt work its way out of my scuba gear.

Kayaking? Always have a blast either at Rock Springs Run or in the Indiatlantic off of Port Orange.

I heard Crystal River is a lot of fun. I didn't know it had diving though.



Arcenal, is this the ramp you use? https://goo.gl/maps/ZUUgo6ohVwYVA9Mx6

Yep!!!

Check it out some time. Not as scenic as Rock Springs, but still a good time, and a different type of scenery. Gets stronger currents too, and occasional dolphins and whatnot.

Yeah that would be awesome to see! Thank you! I’m excited to do more exploring, I just have a sedan, but didn’t realize inflatable paddle boards were designed to be inflated and then deflated for transportation, so that opens a lot of doors now haha.

We go to DeLeon Springs for swimming in a spring. We see folks taking scuba lessons there. We tend to kayak tidal flat water close to home and not at a spring.

I've got a soft spot in my heart for Ichetucknee Springs, as well as Bob's River Place on the Suwannee.
