Seeing Floridas beauty is what you should do. Go on an adventure not to a fake, contrived, adventure. See the real world, it’s less expensive and way more awesome. This is Blue Springs State Park in Orange City, Florida, about 45 minutes north of Orlando, The spring shoots out 200 million gallons of fresh water a day, that creates a fresh water river that is a constant 72 degrees. There’s a narrow passage that starts at about 12 or 15 feet deep then you swim another 6 to 8 feet through a rock tunnel, this time of blackness is the time you spend in the tunnel. I wouldn’t recommend this if you are claustrophobic. Then you swim out into the larger cave opening avoid the trees as you are coming up and you have done an awesome free dive through a cave.

California’s richly diverse state parks give us all the chance to step back from our frenzied modern lives to refresh and restore ourselves in some of the most beautiful places on earth. Henry Coe State Park is one such park that offers a spectacular recreational playground for people of all ages. With its vast and rugged landscape stretching across 90000 acres, it is the second-largest state park in CA. A park so close to large metropolitan areas, one can escape to Henry Coe for horseback riding, mountain biking, exploring trails, hiking, connecting with nature and more. Henry Coe is one of 70 California state parks on the park closure list. Though it will be kept open for now with a temporary operating agreement, it and 69 other parks are threatened to be lost to Californians for good. To learn more about how you can help save California state parks like Henry Coe, visit calparks.org/defend. This video is part of The Magnificent 70 project. See more at mag70.calparks.org. Produced by Doug McConnell and Convergence Media. Music by Jenny Lloyd.
