    Enjoyed going on the glass bottom boat tour extended ride. Our captain was very knowledgeable and funny. We were able to see so much and especially enjoyed the monkeys and otters. Plenty of alligators, turtles and birds as well. Will absolutely come again! Can't wait for November for the manatees.

    Silver Springs State Park is historically significant as Florida's first major tourist attraction, showcasing a rich cultural heritage that spans thousands of years, from early Native American settlements to modern tourism. It has been featured in numerous films & television shows, including Creature from the Black Lagoon. Today, the park continues to be a vital ecological & historical site, emphasizing kayaking, glass bottom boat rides, hiking & canoeing. The water's temperature never goes above a crisp, refreshing 72° & through that crystal clear water, Joyce, our gallant boat Captain, pointed out entire ecosystems thriving below...aquatic plants, gorgeous rock formations & wildlife like Manatees, Turtles, Blue Tilapia, Gar Fish & Alligators. Whatever floats your boat!!!

    I wasn't "in awe". I was in fear of crashing. It was like bumper boats out there, at times!

    We arrived and followed the signs for kayak and glass bottom boat tours. What we had booked was a combination of both. We were headed for a clear kayak tour! We parked and headed directly towards the main gate. Ms. Denise, the very kind and knowledgeable woman at the counter, pointed us in the right direction. While glass bottom boat tour guests do check in at the main entrance, kayaking tours enter at a separate entrance near the boat launch. Silver Springs State Park has a kayak outfitting company that they are partnered with, but there are also lots of other companies offering tours and launching from that same gate. We purchased our tickets through Viator and the company's name was Epic Paddle Adventures. If you aren't going with the official kayak tour of the park, be sure to know the name of the company and/or the color that the tour guide will be wearing. You'll need to pay for entry to the park ($2/person) and your boat launch fee ($4/vessel) before heading out in your kayak. There were lots of individuals there launching their own personal kayaks as well. The springs, which hover around 74 degrees Fahrenheit year-round, are incredibly clear and teeming with wildlife. While we did not get to see any monkeys, we did see manatee, turtles, gators and various birds. Some of the birds that we saw were excellent swimmers! I was both shocked and impressed. The water currents did get a bit strong in a couple of areas, and as this was our first time kayaking, we had to focus and remember the brief tutorial that we'd been given before launching. Nevertheless, we had a lot of fun and felt safe the entire time. There were lots of groups and individuals enjoying the springs on this beautiful, final Autumn day. We also saw the glass bottom boats out on the water, and think that we'll try them out next time. Underwater viewing might be more enjoyable if we aren't paddling/rowing! Sidenote: Manatees are massive and majestic. If you are an animal- and nature-lover, you should definitely go see them!

    Here we go!

    Beautiful State Park with lots of shade and places to sit and enjoy nature. There is a Cafe, a bar and a snack shop. Took a glass bottom boat ride with my family up the river and saw turtles, gators, fish and birds. The Captain of the boat was great. Great relaxing day with my Girl, friends and family.

    Silver Springs State Park is absolutely beautiful and well worth a visit. We went on a gorgeous day in early February, and the weather could not have been more perfect. One of the highlights was seeing several manatees swimming peacefully alongside kayakers and also during the glass bottom boat tour. Watching them glide through the clear water was unforgettable. The park is very affordable to enter, especially considering how much there is to do. There are plenty of hiking opportunities, and the trails make it easy to spend hours exploring and enjoying nature. Everything felt calm, scenic, and well maintained. This was an enjoyable and relaxing experience from start to finish, and it is the kind of place you immediately start planning to return to before you even leave. I am already looking forward to going back.

    I absolutely love this park. There are so many activities, enough variety to accommodate visitors with all levels of ability. The glass bottom boats are a nostalgic trip back in time. Our tour guide provided excellent narration and detailed the history of the area as well as many humorous stories. We saw a great variety of wildlife but unfortunately no monkeys today. There are walking trails and so much more. Although we only spent one day here, we plan to return to try some more activities. In particular, we would like to kayak. Admission is a an amazingly reasonable price of two dollars per person. Truly, the best two dollars you will spend for an entire day of experiences

    First time visiting Florida and this state park was my first tourist stop! Florida's historic attraction and has one of America's largest freshwater springs! The park offers a glass-bottom boat tour, hiking, biking, camping , kayaking and as well as a banquet room venue for any occasion as well as a restaurant! Walking along the river's paved trail was very relaxing !!

    Glass bottom boat tour!

    WOW, what an amazing time I had with my friend at Silver Springs State Park! We arrived at 10:30 AM for an 11:30 AM glass bottom boat ride. It took roughly 2 hours from Jacksonville on a Saturday morning. We paid $2 each to enter the park and the glass bottom boat ride was roughly $30 each. I made our boat reservation online a few weeks prior. She gave us a printed ticket at the gate for the boat ride and asked us to be there no later than 10 minutes prior to departure. We did a short trail walk upon arrival where we saw may beautiful trees, flowers and plants. We checked out the gift shop and used the restroom which was clean. We got in line 10 minutes before our departure, everyone was checked in and then we boarded the glass bottom boat. Captain Vince led us on a 90-minute adventure showing us the largest springs in Silver River, he pointed out various wildlife, including a few manatees, and shared the rich history of Silver Springs. This was one of the most relaxing boat rides ever! I could have taken a nap LOL. Not because it was boring but because it was so peaceful;) The boats are only allowed to idle, therefore it was very quiet. There were many kayakers and paddle borders on the river too. It was a dog friendly park. I would absolutely recommend checking out Silver Springs State Park!

    I had fond memories of my glass-bottom boat trips as a child, so a friend of mine and I went down on a recent Saturday to see if it lived up to my memories...and it did! We bought tickets online in advance and opted for the extended 90-minute tour, and I'm really glad we did. As a matter of fact, I'd suggest anyone opt for it unless you're in a time crunch or really uncertain whether folks in your party will enjoy it/be comfortable on a boat for 90 minutes. (The boats are open-sided and small -- not the type with any restrooms or concessions on board, for example.) We arrived an hour before our boat tour (on a Saturday in early October); the park was easy to find with its huge entrance sign, and the parking was easy, too. We were greeted as soon as we walked up by a lovely volunteer who asked if we had any questions and pointed us toward the ticket booth ($2/person entry fee to the park, and credit cards were accepted). From there, we walked past the indoor areas that included a Discovery Center (which was closed, unfortunately), a lovely gift shop, a café, a snack bar, restrooms, and an indoor event space. All of these were indoors and air-conditioned, which is always good to have in Florida. We took a short walk along one of the walking trails and found it easy to navigate; I'd come back just to spend some more time walking in the area, as it's a beautiful glimpse of Old Florida. The educational markers were well done and insightful, too. Our boat tour was excellent. The boat wasn't packed, so we had room to be comfortable (although I imagine that might be a bit different during peak tourist times) on the bench seating that surrounded the glass in the middle. Our captain, Vince, was an absolute delight: he was funny, personable, and extremely knowledgeable about the flora and fauna (both terrestrial and aquatic), the history of the park, and more. There are no guarantees about the wildlife you'll see, which is (or at least should be) totally understandable; this is a place to see wild animals. We were really fortunate to see several manatees, which was wonderful, and plenty of birds. However, the macaques (yes, there are monkeys here) decided to stay in the trees during our trip on the water. Even if you don't see the animals you're hoping to see, the trip is still beautiful. Fish are essentially a guarantee, but even the colors you'll see through the glass bottom are gorgeous, thanks to the incredibly clear water. And again, if your captain is (or is anything like) Captain Vince, you won't be bored. The kids and adults on our trip enjoyed learning from him and asking him questions. Overall, I think this is a great place to visit whether you're a Floridian or a tourist, as it's a beautifully cared-for part of the state's past and present.

    Me and my bird Ricochet out walking in the park. He's a golphin cockatoo...

    This park offers a plethora of things to do and see. But know this, you are being watched! Monkey's are watching, an abundance of birds, armadillos, squirrels, skunks, foxes, opossum, turtles, snakes, alligators and more....and then you have the boardwalks that take you into the heart of the park and allow you to see above the swamp. Or kayak down the river and look for manatees. One thing is certain, you're gonna love Silver Springs State Park in Ocala Florida

    This morning at my dad and I drive to the Silver Springs State Park in Silver Springs Florida. We paid for the 30 minute glass bottom boat tour which was $15 per person plus a five dollar entry fee per person. I haven't been to this park since I was little with my grandparents back in the day; it definitely brought back a lot of memories. The tour was roughly about 30 minutes and our boat captain was Captain Andrew and he knew a lot about the springs. Not only can you do the glass bottom boats but they also have walking trails, picnic areas, and sitting spots around the springs. Unfortunately for the state park you cannot swim in it but down the street they do have an area that you can swim in for camping and swimming. I think this is one of my favorite state parks in all of Florida. If you have not been I definitely recommend it it was about an hour and 45 minutes from when I picked my dad up from the Orlando airport. 10/10

    The most memorable park in Ocala! I have to admit I did not see it all so I will be going back…read moreshortly to see so much more. I was at peace just walking a bit sipping coffee and taking in the calm and beauty. There is much to see at Shalom Park it's very beautiful place to be. When I was there they were having a yoga class it was so nice to see. I walked around and spoke to some lovely people they mostly were enjoying some morning exercise. I'm sorry that I missed the zen garden but this just gives me an excuse to go back faster. It's obvious that many frequent this park for so many reasons you can easily see. It's lovely, peaceful, clean and you feel pretty safe comparatively. They have activities here from what I've read and the yoga class is proof of this but I think there is much more that I need to explore and check the calendar for to see and know for myself. There are 2 miles of trails, the zen garden, an area called the Labryrinth where you can take a physical, spiritual or meditative walk along its winding path. Stop along it's 24 points of reflection and create your own Labryinth experience. Labryinth's have one way in and one way out come in and form your own perspective enjoying this relaxed atmosphere. The Pergebo was magnificent as I felt so much happiness being there. It is part gazebo and part pergola, I didn't even know such a thing existed until now! It's covered in confederate jasmine and blossoms in the spring with tiny white fragrant flowers. This is located on the path at the end of the olive trees! I enjoyed the pond so much with all the beautiful fish and sounds of the falling water. You can feed the fish and see them all come at once jumping out at you. Gorgeous Koi such beautiful colors. Sit on a bench and relax if you'd like there are many all around the park for you to enjoy. They say the pavilion is often used for educational purposes and horticulture events and that there are often presentations that people can escape the sun or rain showers. The stage is where I had seen the yoga class taking place. They have weddings, live concerts, the parks sunset series and much more on the stage throughout the year. Mounted on the stage, The Peace Panels display quotes of peace by renowned authors, musicians, and political leaders! The olive tree promenade has 18 trees on each side 18 is the symbol of peace; the number 18 is the symbol of life,and many couples use this as their entry way for marriage. The formal gardens is an area where there is lot's of live large oak trees, colorful bushes and lot's of foliage all around in a nice quiet shaded atmosphere. People often gather here for a picnic, wedding or just to enjoy and relax and enjoy the environment. The bat house can hold 800 bats during the night. Bats are a natural way of achieving insect control in the park and each bat can consume 6-8,000 insect every night! There is so much more to see and encounter at Shalom Park I encourage you to visit and explore. The story of Shalom Park from their website: As with most great achievements, Sholom Park began as a vision, born in the hearts of Sidney and Ina Colen. Inspired by a visit to Boston Gardens, Sholom Park was created for a purpose; to provide a place where the pursuit of inner peace and learning may be enhanced and enjoyed. The park was named after Sidney Colen's grandfather, Sholom, which is also the Hebrew word for peace. The park does not serve a political or religious agenda or belief system After years of conceptualizing the vision, a master plan for the park was developed in 1999 and the park concepts began to take shape. In 2001, horticulturist, Steve Curl was hired to oversee the final design and construction of Sholom Park as the vision came to life. On October 17, 2004, Sholom Park celebrated its grand opening and ribbon cutting along with hundreds of friends and supporters. Hours: 8 AM - 5 PM Address: 7110 SW 80th Avenue, Ocala, FL 34481 Phone: 352) 854-3677 Email: info@sholompark.org Wheelchair accessible *** Bike racks available ***

    Wow! WoW! Wow! I think this park is profoundly under the radar and simply not well known enough…read more This isn't just some playground with a path. In fact, there is no playground equipment at all. What it does offer, though, is everything one could want in a natural setting. You can walk for a little while or lose yourself in it for much longer. The paths are easy, accessible, and thoughtfully laid out, with enough variation to keep things interesting from start to finish. It never feels repetitive, which is rare. The labyrinth was genuinely enjoyable, with multiple points of interest throughout. Subtle shifts in sound and visual texture keep you engaged, yet everything remains grounded in simple nature, shaped by the hands of men.. nothing artificial or forced, just an intentional design that draws you in. The crowning glory moment for me was the Zen garden. I cannot remember the last time I felt that level of calm and stillness. It has a way of centering you almost immediately. I would have stayed longer, but I needed a restroom, which unfortunately was closed at the time. This is a place I will return to without hesitation. My mother has yet to see it, and I already know she is going to love it.

I…read moreoriginally planned on paddleboarding but after doing some research, I saw that the alligators can be more protective during mating season so we decided to skip the water activities this time. Instead, we did the glass-bottom boat ride which was really cool! We saw a few gators, paddlers, birds, and lots of other wildlife. They offer a 30 minute ride or a longer 1.5 hour ride. If you're prone to motion sickness like me, I'd definitely stick with the 30 minute option. That was plenty for me lol We also did about an hour of hiking. There are different trails throughout the park but we weren't really prepared to hike for much longer especially in the middle of summer. Unfortunately, we didn't get to see any of the monkeys this time! There's also a café/bar, discovery center and gift shop near the entrance, so there's plenty to check out. Overall, we really enjoyed our visit and I'd definitely come back. Hopefully next time I can actually paddleboard when it's not quite as hot and the gators aren't as protective!

It is dog friendly ( leashed ) and it isn't the kind of place that has all the frills. The conservation area is 330 acres and it's the largest intact property that is privately owned undeveloped adjacent to Silver Springs and had been purchased to protect our ground water and Silver Springs by preserving this recharge site. The conservation area consists of three types of natural communities ; Sandhill, Upland Mixed Forest, & Wet Prairie. Some of the wildlife seen here are Whitetail deer, Sherman's fox squirrel, gopher tortoise, black racer, yellow rat snake, northern cardinal, towhee, pileated woodpeckers.

It's for hikers, bikers & 1 of the 3 entrances is for horses to enter. Though their website says it is good for fishing all I've found is a dried up creek bed. There are always things to remember when on a trail like this: always yield to the equestrian; be prepared with extra fluids; you can never take enough protection & make sure your cell is fully charged. It's a huge 4,600 acres so please also tell others where y'all are going - just from a common sense point of view. This only opened a few months ago and so far is very rudimentary. There's no doubt about it that this is back country trails. There is only 1 small shelter and in the heat of an intense summer there is no other shade though there's all types of wildlife. I've yet to see any wildlife and I'm thinking they were also taking shade behind trees. ;) Enjoy but keep in mind that this is a conservation area. Leave no footprints.

The park dates back to 1916, when the city purchased the original 10 acres surrounding what was then known as Howse Spring. The Ocala Woman's Club helped transform the area with landscaping, huge oaks and magnolias, and even created Victory Way as a memorial to Marion County residents who served in World War I. Those historic brick entrance pillars are still standing, which I thought was a pretty cool detail to stumble across while simply walking around. Today the park has Lake Tuscawilla, walking paths, fishing, playgrounds, sports areas, public art and an amphitheater, so there is more here than meets the eye. I especially liked discovering how the park connects to the surrounding historic neighborhood, because suddenly you're not just walking around a park, you're walking through a piece of old Ocala. It's peaceful, historic and easy to explore, with just enough going on to keep a curious person wandering.

    I always love walking around this park and today was just an enjoyable day walking with my son…read moregetting in a few laps around the lake trying to get my health back on track. Afterwards we went and I took some pictures because I could never resist the beauty in this little park in our little big city of Ocala! Come visit take a walk and remember right across is Midtown Station where yo can easily enjoy some coffee and some delicious food.
