Welcome to White Springs
Florida’s first tourist attraction — a peaceful, rural town on the banks of the historic Suwannee River.
Many people are attracted to the White Springs community because of the historic Suwannee River which flows right through the Town. The river promises much excitement and entertainment for White Springs as well as the surrounding counties.
The river offers opportunity for the boating enthusiast, the canoeist, and divers. Many enjoy simply floating along the riverbanks, fishing for red-bellies, brim, mullet, and catfish. Divers come from all over the country to dive in the many springs that spawn off the Suwannee River and explore the caves.
When you get here, take advantage of the beautiful, rural scenery that we are so blessed to have and our friendly little town, where pride in family and community create a wonderful quality of life.
It is a peaceful, rural area of natural beauty, balancing the old with the new. White Springs — more than just a place to drive through.
