Photo by: Florida SpringsA cluster of seven shallow limestone vents connected by underwater caves, located just upstream of the Chassahowitzka Spring Main. It’s a vibrant first-magnitude spring system, set within the Chassahowitzka National Wildlife Refuge and accessed via public paddling routes—though there’s no formal state park designation, it's framed by private campgrounds like Seven Sisters Campground, which supports kayaking, snorkeling, wildlife viewing (manatees, birds, fish), and scenic riverfront recreation. Optimal viewing conditions occur when the stage is at low-tide levels (~0.8–1.2 ft)—this range indicates maximum spring flow with minimal mixing from upstream runoff or saltwater.
