About Wes Skiles Peacock Springs State Park
A NOTE FROM THE MANAGER
Craig Liney
Summer has arrived at Wes Skiles Peacock Springs State Park. Come and see the beautiful springs and sinks and watch the wildlife soak up the sun. Peacock Springs State Park is a unique place which offers thousands of feet of underwater passageways for cave certified divers to explore, connecting springs and sinks all over the property. Orange Grove Sink is available for open water certified divers as well. Visitors who are not diving can enjoy the view of the springs, a picnic lunch or a stroll down the nature trail. Our new Springs Interpretive Trail is now open with a breathtaking veiw of Olsen Sink from the trail overlook, providing visitors with a firsthand look into the Florida Aquifer. Peacock Springs is a special place worth visiting in any season.
NOTE: Bonnet Springs is currently closed to all activities due to resource protection. Please feel free to enjoy all of the other amenities that Peacock Springs State Park has to offer.
