A MESSAGE FROM PARK RANGER
AMY CONYERS

We look forward to your visit and want to be sure that you have a great time. We encourage you to plan your visit and make reservations. If you would like to take a boat tour, please secure your tickets online at https://thelodgeatwakullasprings.com/plan-your-trip/jungle-cruise/. You’ll be sure to work up an appetite, so make reservations to enjoy a meal as well. Dining reservations can be made online at https://www.opentable.com/r/the-edward-ball-dining-room-at-wakulla-springs-crawfordville. All reservations can also be made by calling the Lodge at 850-421-2000.

At any time of year, the park has something new to see or enjoy. Whether it is a new menu item at the Lodge restaurant, a new flavor of ice cream in the parlor, a flower in bloom (check out our new plant identification guide) or a flash of color fluttering by, you are sure to find something to make your visit memorable and unique.

Off the Beaten Path – Wakulla Springs State Park

Wakulla Springs is one of the deepest springs in the world; cave divers have found the remains of Mastodons! Today, you can take a scenic boat trip full of wildlife or dive off a platform into Wakulla Spring.

Check out the amazing photos of the Car Show recently held at beautiful Wakulla Springs on September, 10 2022.

It was a good day for the show... featuring many classic cars, motorcycles, military vehicles and hot rods.

Those who attended were able to enjoy the grounds of Wakulla Springs and able to walk among these vehicles and even talk to the owners about their precious rides.
