A NOTE FROM THE MANAGER

Peter J. Scalco

Winter has arrived and with it a great opportunity for a brisk morning hike followed by a picnic on a sunny afternoon. The sunny clear skies and uncrowded trails make it a great time to visit Wakulla Springs State Park.  Winter wildlife is abounding right now along the river including migratory ducks and an expanding manatee population, meaning your river boat tour will give you an incredible wildlife viewing encounter. After your boat trip enjoy refreshments or bring home the perfect souvenir from the Lodge Gift Shop. We look forward to seeing you!
