Salt Springs - healing mineral water source

Healing natural mineral water pool in lush semitropical forest

Salt Springs recreational area is part of Ocala National Forest Reserve.

Park offers large camping area, picnic facilities, concessions, rest rooms, showers, boat ramp, marina, boat rentals.

The spring water is rich in minerals - sodium, potassium, silica, and magnesium salts. In the past people had been using the healing power of this natural mineral water. Some people still do so. Despite the salinity, water in the pool is very clear with perfect visibility - swimming, snorkeling and skin-diving through the water plants among abundance of fish is fun and joy.

Fishing and boating in Salt Springs Run are extremely popular. Boats and canoes can be rented at nearby Salt Springs Marina. Water skiing would be another fun activity
