Manatee Springs is quite a gusher. This waterway spills out 100 million gallons of water daily. There are two easy ways to see this park.
Hike the entirety of the trail system to walk under humongous cypress trees. The other options are to bring a kayak or canoe to get close to the water. Swimming and diving are also relevant choices.
Just about any time of year, you can see manatees in the park. Particularly in cooler months, they hang out near the springs. The water stays 72 degrees, so these graceful creatures keep warm as the water gushes out of the ground. Come in the spring or fall and you might just find yourself being carted around the park on a good old-fashioned wagon ride.
Camping happens year-round. You can bring a tent for rustic sites or hook-up your RV at pull-through sites.

Who needs showers when you’ve got the purified, turquoise waters of Manatee Spring to bath in? Though we prefer to go “au naturale” and take advantage of the springs daily production of over 100 million gallons of H20, remarkably, park goers will still be able to find hot shower facilities at all three loops, easily accessible for all 78 sites!
