Blue Springs
A safe haven for the endangered manatee, Blue Springs provides winter habitat for these slow, gentle creatures. The manatee can be observed from a platform built over the springs, and are commonly seen between November and March. Pumping over 65 million gallons of crystal clear water daily, the springs offer great swimming, snorkeling and scuba diving. The springs flow into the nearby St. Johns River, and ranger lead canoe tours are offered daily. Located in Blue Springs State Park, the area offers many park amenities; a campground, hiking trails, fishing dock and picnic areas being a few of the many available.

The Orlando area hot spots don't end there. The list of
dinner theatres, water parks, and themed adventure tours that are
competing for business is a long one. Even if you want to water ski

Universal Drive is a tourist destination for night owls. This lively thoroughfare is packed with recognizable restaurants, bars, clubs, and tourist friendly shopping. Tourism is big business in Orlando but it is not the only game in town. Locals enjoy some great nightlife as well. Orange Avenue and Church Street are the center of a bar and music scene that comes alive when the sun goes down. Orlando is an example of a prioritized and carefully laid out city. It's not difficult to sell Orlando as a great Vacation destination. It is number one in America for good reason.
