3 Best Sights in Ocala National Forest, Northeast Coast

Alexander Springs Recreation Area

In this recreation area you'll find a campground, as well as a stream for swimming, canoeing, and kayaking. At a constant temperature of 72 degrees, the clear waters are popular for fishing, too.

Juniper Springs Recreation Area

Here you'll find a stone waterwheel house, a campground, a natural-spring swimming pool, and hiking trails. The 7-mile Juniper Springs run is a narrow, twisting, and winding canoe ride, which, although exhilarating, isn't for the novice.

Salt Springs Recreation Area

The draw here is a natural saltwater spring where Atlantic blue crabs come to spawn each summer.
