Falling Waters State Park initially felt a bit small when we arrived, but as we continued to…read moreexplore, we quickly realized it was much larger than we first assumed. Our first stop, of course, was the sinkholes and waterfall. While the waterfall itself felt a little underwhelming considering it's described as the highest waterfall in the state, the experience was still quite serene. Hearing the water drop, feeling the cool breeze from the running water, and simply pausing to take it all in made the stop worthwhile. We were a bit disappointed to find that parts of the trail system were closed off, which limited some of our planned exploration. That said, we kept walking and were able to find other trails to enjoy. We ended up wandering around for about two hours, though we know we didn't get to see everything the park has to offer. One of my favorite unexpected features was the dedicated bat habitat area, which was both interesting and unique. Overall, it's a peaceful park with more to discover than meets the eye, and a nice place to spend a couple of hours exploring nature.

One water bottle is 6 bucks. My daughter loved the new kid play area they opened last year, well it is now closed and boarded up. The entire place stinks of pee. Some kid threw up in a pool when we were there and all they did was scoop it out and throw in an chlorine tab in and let everyone back in within 5 minutes. Before we left this God awful place we wanted to get dippin dots, well guess what? They sold out before it was even 2:30 PM. Save yourself money and don't come here. You'd be better off driving to Destin and going to the water park there.

I love taking my kids here in the summer time. They loves the aquatics center. It is usually pretty…read morecrowded but there are a variety of things for kids to play with. I like that the area is zero entry so the edge is perfect for babies. They allow you to bring your own food and drinks. Snacks are a must with kids playing in the sun and water. ATMOSPHERE: Casual. Kid friendly. Clean. Shaded areas to sit and you can bring your own lawn chairs. There are also able lounge style beach chairs with umbrellas. The kiddy aquatics area is separate from the lap pool. There are ample lifeguards who seem attentive. They ensure to give breaks from the water and they do well at watching the weather. It do well at communicating any weather advisories. PROs- Cheaper admission on Sundays during the summer. CONs- I think it should be open for longer hours during the summer.

It is also home to the tennis center, walking trails, a bike trail, and connects with the water park. As you walk the trail part of the area is paved and another area is dirt. We chose to walk on the paved bike trail because the dirt trail was soooooo muddy. I enjoyed that there are some outdoor work out spots. The fields look to be well maintained, as did the rest of the park. A suggestion would to add some dog poop pick up cans.

You can also rent a cabana which we did. It's pricey but we were glad to have it for the baby. Plenty of room for all of us to sit. They provided 4 bottles of water. There is a cooler as well and a safe which we really appreciated. Lots to do for all ages. Some slides you can't have sunglasses, hats etc. Best bet is to just bring yourself. Wearing some type of water shoes that don't come off is beneficial because you can't have loose shoes and the ground gets hot in bare feet. Be sure to bring beach towels and sunscreen. Fun day.

If you've never been to the Florida caverns being that there even is any caverns in the state of…read moreFlorida is pretty awesome and unique the experience is always exciting and fun. I've been to this cave a few times over the last 15 years.. and every time I've come, there's always something different about it. When you first get to the cave, be prepared to stop and pay five dollars to enter the state park this is probably one of the only cons about the whole place. I don't know why the state park doesn't include admission to the park along with your admission to the caves, all in one. . At any route five dollars per car load to enter the state park after driving some twists and turns you come up to the visitor center. Don't be discouraged by everybody coming out in sweatshirts or hoodies I was informed by our tour guide that these items would not be needed as the cave is a Balmy 65° all year round. We scheduled our tour online, which showed up three hours early. They're scheduling physically at the place is different from their scheduling online we showed up with the intentions of waiting around for two hours before our tour and was told by the visitor center. There was a tour leaving in five minutes if you want to jump on that one and I gladly accepted . We joined the tour group of about 25 people and Jack was our guide. A local FSU university student. He did a phenomenal job explaining that to the caves along with a lot of humor to make it more enjoyable. After a short three minute walk from the visitor center down to the entrance of the caverns at a depth between 60 and 100 feet underground.. you emerge in a area on a slight incline, surrounded by slag mites, and slag types. As you walk through the cave, your reminded that overtime, the cave changes, especially after hurricane Michael came through in 2018. The caverns apparently filled completely up to the ceiling and along with it brought several tons of sand into the caverns, which all had to be excavated by hand looking at the massive case system seems like such a daunting task, but with the help of volunteers from FSU in the surrounding area, they were able to get it done in three months time. Back to the caverns as you meandering your way throughout your showing multiple different formation names all of which I can't remember, and you come upon the original entrance to the caverns Jack explained to us the former owner of the caverns and their intended use as a tourist trap before eventually turning hands over to the Florida conservation corps.. the walk through the caverns just about 3/4 of a mile before emerging back out the other side and tour. I didn't wanna leave because it was so extremely hot the day that I went outside and being inside, the cave felt so much more relaxing.. Overall, it's a very unique experience . I highly recommend anybody that hasn't been to go to it. You will not be disappointed in anyway.. it's also very good for children as well. I had my eight year-old with me and they learned a lot..

Florida Caverns State Park made for a memorable stop on our road trip from Tampa to Destin…read more Exploring the caverns was definitely worth doing in this beautiful state park. We directly went to the office to inquire about the caverns tour. We then booked our tour, which would begin in 20 minutes. Meanwhile, we explored the caverns museum, which provided general historical information. Yardi was our excellent guide for the caverns. She provided us with great information and detailed history about the caves, making the tour both informative and engaging. The tour lasted approximately 45 minutes, and Yardi kept it interesting from start to finish. The park also has a food truck for quick bites. Florida Caverns State Park is a great place to learn about the history of caverns within the park.

Most of the negative reviews here are all for the floating waterpark experience. Moving on, we booked online for renting their jet skis and came in to sign our waivers. If you have anyone in your party under 25 years old who will drive a jet ski or boat, they are required to get a license (anyone born on or after January 1st, 1988). Navarre Family Watersports provides a Florida Boaters Temporary Safety Certificate after they pass a test, which takes about 30 minutes to complete. The certificate is valid for 30 days. Our instructor was great. He went over all the proper safety protocols, explained how to operate this particular model of jet ski, answered all our questions, and took us around for about an hour. Then we had another hour to enjoy ourselves. We did the two-hour ride. You get to cruise around the east side of the Navarre Beach Causeway Bridge, which is the Santa Rosa Sound to Makaph Island (Spectre) and back. Keep in mind that they will tell you there are no sharks in the Santa Rosa Sound. However, the Pensacola Bay, East Bay, and Santa Rosa Sound are all fed from the Gulf. It's saltwater... We had no issues, and the noise will scare the sharks and stingrays away. Dolphins, on the other hand, will follow you around for a bit, which is super cool. My kids came back another day and did the ropes course, which they loved. Overall, we had a great time. I would recommend their jetskis and obstacle course. [Review #711] (9th Review of 2024)
