Florida spring

Blackwater Springs

The site includes seven spring pools, with the largest about 95 × 80 ft and averaging 12 ft deep, feeding into Blackwater Creek. These pools contain natural detritus and are surrounded by swampy forest habitat—and have a noticeable hydrogen sulfide (sulfur) odor. The springs are located on public land, specifically Seminole State Forest, and are therefore publicly owned. There are no developed amenities—no trails, boardwalks, signage, parking, or boat ramps—so access may be difficult and undeveloped.
