I did my dive training here! So great to see this here. The visibility of this spring is unbelievable
I love it there! Such a pretty place!
It really is!
I was there this week. My husband, sister, and sister’s husband went on a short trip. The springs weren’t as busy as I’ve seen them get in other videos I watched for research purposes, but there were people there. Luckily not enough to make it feel crowded. We floated down the river on an inflatable rafter and got to see lots of turtles and just soak up the sun. We viewed Dogwood Spring and then walked to Ginnie Spring and swam there. The springs are sooooo clear and cool and refreshing. They are beautiful. I definitely recommend bringing or renting goggles/diving mask to view the water from underneath the surface. It is gorgeous. We stayed in an AirBnb right around the corner from the Great Outdoors restaurant and we traveled to Gainesville to experience other restaurants, including Gator’s Dockside that had an amazing Cajun shrimp pasta. I highly recommend staying in High Springs or Gainesville and going to Ginnie Springs.
Thank you for this comment!!! Ginnie is truly one of my fave places in the whole world! And I love that restaurant!
Spent my 40th birthday there. Absolutely love it!
Yay!!! One of my faves
Definitely on my bucket list now! So beautiful ❤
Thank you!
It looks spectacular there, and I am impressed with how clear the water is. This makes me want to take a trip to Florida!!!
It’s worth it!!!
On my bucket list for sure!!!! 🌴
It is worth it
This is a great spring, perfect for kids. We used to go when the kids were in elementary school and they loved it. Does get busy in summer and holidays.
Thanks for sharing!
two separate murders there this weekend. open air drug use every day of the year. you are a FOOL if you bring children here. absolutely infested with drunk lowlifes.
Beautiful ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Ah hello, there are lots of natural springs in Florida.
This is a beautiful video, thank you. I shall have to see the springs. They all look awesome. ❤
You need to go!!!
Are there gators in there
Such a beautiful spring! Fantastic job with this video! The filming and editing are great, TJ! 😄Loved the scene cut when Victoria dived in!
Thank you! He did a great job!
I’m putting that spring water in my bucket list🩵
Yet! As you should
Best time to visit if your a non party person is winter, early fall and spring and weekdays. Worked there part time for 8 yrs at rentals and spring attendant at the. Main spring and Devils.
Fully agree
Are dogs allowed? The springs are beautiful. I have a black lab and a Golden retriever and they love water. The Springs are absolutely beautiful. Thank you.

No pets are allowed
Ginnie Springs does not allow pets
I want to visit there.
You should!
Not sure who Ginnie springs is hidden from, everyone in north Florida knows it. Nice place. ❤
From the people who don’t live in north Florida. Lots don’t know about it!!! I agree it’s beautiful
Can’t just swim there knowing a alligator 🐊 could drown me and eat me ❤
Aka Puerto rican springs....now.
Northerner the Ruiner of Florida
Are you the northerner???
miami natives are also doing a lot of heavy lifiting in ruining north florida
@@squarecracker
Yep I'm one of them
Am I the only person to think “gators in river and springs equals gators”? Have there been gators sitings at all? Surely there has. I live about 9 hours north and they’re in our rivers.
Where is it?
High springs Florida
Can I fish in it?
No
Hidden... LOL.
Good for kids?
Lots of people bring kids but it’s about 3 feet deep in the shallowest parts so it’s not good for super little ones. Think of it like the shallow area of the pool with steps. There isn’t a little beach area
Not on weekends or holidays...gets trashy
Love this place but there was a double shooting there last weekend. Kids just don’t know how to party nowadays
Hidden gem lol everyone goes there it gets packed and trashed
How deep are these springs?
The main Spring it's a little less than 20 ft. Little Devils 40 ish, Devils Eye 20 ft and Devils Ear about 30 to 40
@@tomeauburn thank you
@@apuz13 I might add if you go into the ballroom at the grate it's about 55 if I remember right. If your cavern the Devils system in the gallery area is about 60. If your cavern certified most of the tunnels are around 90 but can get deeper or shallower. If your a really advanced cave diver the new section has some deeper areas
@@tomeauburn Thanks again
Beautiful springs but don’t go during holiday weekends or spring break. Gets too crowded and people act stupid. A man got shot and lost his life this past Memorial Day weekend over a fight for a parking spot.
Is that who they were looking for at ginnie springs
Yup. Two people from Georgia were arrested the same day believe.
Two people died over memorial. Both the park and police have put measures to make it safer including park limits
We started going there in the early 80s. And probably 3-4 times a year. But no more. This is not a hidden gem any more. All of the area springs are so over crowded. Weekends are horrible, loud Spanish music plays all knight. 10 o'clock is supposed to be quite time at night but no one their to enforce that rule. Employees leave at the end of the day,and you are on your own. NO PIECE AT ALL BECAUSE EVERYBODY NOW BRINGS GENERATORS,HUNDREDS OF THESE THANGS RUN ALL NITE LONG. TO POWER STEREO EQUIPMENT AT HIGH LEVELS. FEELS LIKE AFTER A HURRICANE HAS COME THROUGH. THE SPANISH COMMUNITY HAS TAKEN OVER THIS WITH NO REGARD TO ANYONE ELSE. IF YOU GO HERE I RECOMMEND GOING ON TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY. TO AVOID ALL THE RIFF RAFF,DOPE SMOKE AND JUST A TON OF UNRULY DISRESPECTFUL PEOPLE.
My brother goes to UCF and his fraternity just went there to party. Is is not a fun place unless you’re 21 and stay up all night lol
Don't worry it won't be around too much longer with global warming and Florida's lack of environmental controls.😒
Time to send the criminals back home!
