Visit one of North America’s most prehistoric places, Devil’s Den Spring! This underground spring inside a dry cave has been home to many extinct animal fossils dating back to the Pleistocene Age, which are on display at The University of Florida’s Museum of Natural History.
On cold winter mornings you can see steam, like smoke, rising from the chimney opening. Thus, the early settlers gave the name Devil’s Den. With crystal clear water, year round 72 degree water temperatures, ancient rock formations with stalactites, fossil beds dating back 33 million years, and much more, you’re guaranteed to leave with memories that will last a lifetime!
Devil’s Den Spring has a maximum surface diameter of 120 feet and reaches a depth of 54 feet. The water is a consistent 72 degrees year round, which is perfect for hot summer days.
You can rent all the scuba and snorkeling equipment you need, right on site.
Stay for the weekend. There is 4 cabins you can rent, an RV park, and tent camping is also available! The grounds have two shower houses with changing areas, picnic tables, fire pits, five cabanas, two pavilions, and a large heated pool.
If you are interested in learning to scuba dive and become a certified diver, this is a great place to learn. However Devil’s Den does not provide lessons. Many instructors around the area book dive times within the spring, to teach students.
