Tupelo Spring
Magnitude 3Econfina CreekSunny HillsPublic
Photo by: Florida SpringsLocated within a tupelo-cypress swamp along the creek’s edge, this small but distinct vent provides a clear upwelling among otherwise tannic floodplain waters. The spring lies on publicly managed NWFWMD land and is accessible by paddling via Econfina Creek, though there are no developed access facilities. Water clarity is noticeably clear at the vent, though visibility is subject to variation with creek stage and flow conditions. The creek is shallow in this area. Cool place to wade. Gear rental, shuttles, and tours are available in the nearby area. Boats on the creek are limited to 9.9 hp. Look for clarity improving with water heights below 7 feet and lower.
