Hunter Springs Park

About 100 feet offshore is one of the 70 natural springs that feed the Crystal River and Kings Bay. The springs keep the water a pretty constant 72°F (22° Celsius) year-round. The park offers a small beach area leading to a roped-off swimming area, kayak/canoe launch, a boardwalk along the waterway where you are likely to spot waterbirds, a playground area, and other amenities. Bring your beach gear, stretch out on the grass, enjoy a picnic, and swim. You may even spot manatees swimming by, especially in colder months.
