Florida spring
Jackson Spring
Magnitude 3Sandy CreekPonce De LeonPublic
The spring has 68-degree water and an estimated flow of 10-15 million gallons per day. Nestled along a tributary of the Choctawhatchee River, the spring forms a small, serene pool surrounded by cypress trees and dense forest. Ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and kayaking, it’s accessible only by water via canoe or kayak from launch points like Vortex Spring or Ponce de Leon Springs State Park. Water clarity is vivid during dry periods (October-April), but heavy rain can cloud the spring due to Sandy Creek runoff.
