Experience eternal youth at Ponce de Leon Springs
State Park – home to the legendary “Fountain
of Youth.” As history states, Juan Ponce de Leon
led the first Spanish expedition to Florida in 1513
in search of this fountain. He never found the fountain,
but locals claim that the natural wonder that he hunted
makes its home in this park. Ponce de Leon Springs
is relatively cool and inviting with temperatures around
68 degrees Fahrenheit year round. The main spring is
a convergence of two, underground water flows, and
it produces 14 million gallons of water daily. Visitors
of this park can be found drinking, splashing, bathing,
hiking and exploring.
Hours and admission:
Open daily from 8 a.m. until dusk; $3 per vehicle and
$1 for bicyclists and pedestrians
