🚣🏼♂️🌊 Crystal River: HGTV calls this small Florida town one of America's most charming. Do you agree? | Tal Dem
Looking for a peaceful Florida getaway without the crowds and theme park chaos? HGTV recently spotlighted Crystal River as the most charming small town in the state, nestled along Florida's Gulf Coast.
Crystal River, known for its natural beauty, attracts visitors who enjoy boating, fishing, and eco-tours. But what truly sets it apart is the opportunity to swim with manatees, an experience exclusive to this area in the U.S. With guided tours, you can encounter these gentle "sea cows" while kayaking, paddleboarding, or strolling the Three Sisters Springs boardwalk. | Things To Do
For a deeper dive into Florida's wildlife, visit the Ellie Schiller Homosassa Springs Wildlife State Park, just a short drive away. Open daily from 9:30 AM to 5 PM, entrance fees start at $13 for adults.
Other activities in Crystal River include horseback riding, airboat tours, and local museum visits. Located about 80 miles north of Tampa, this hidden gem on Florida's Nature Coast offers the perfect escape into nature.
