We rented bikes to take advantage of the trails around “Bailey Track”. This area is set aside for wildlife surrounded by numerous homes. We saw several varieties of birds along with three alligators. One larger one was on the bike trail. I was surprised how fast they can run. I was glad it was running away and not towards us.
Wakulla Springs State Park 001
On the way north we stopped at Wakulla Springs State Park, home of one of the largest and deepest freshwater springs in the world. Private boats, canoes or kayaks are not permitted in order to protect this pristine resource, so we took a scenic guided riverboat cruise. The water is so clear that you see lots of fish and wildlife.
