Swim
Swim and tube. IS SOMETIMES CLOSED DUE TO BACTERIAL COUNT FROM ANIMALS. This from a visitor:†I just wanted to say that it is a great place to swim. Very popular with the locals and visitors. My grandparents swam there when they were young. I just wanted to let you know that it is a great place to swim and it is very clean and has a nice campground. Tubing is popular and the run starts at the cave to the right of the parking lot. The cave is barred for no entry. The water is deceptively clear...the water deeper than it looks. But cold, fresh and wonderful on a hot Florida day. The inner tubes can be rented outside the park at a couple of gas stations for a pretty cheap amount. Or you can take your own. The current is lazy, but strong enough to propel you downstream without having to kick your feet. There is a clean kiddie beach in a shallow part that is away from the diving and tubing."
