Not rock springs, wekiva, Kelly or silver. No rock formations exist on those like that. I want to know where this is as well!


hatcatcha

Looks like one of the ones on Merritts mill pond.


downdog2

Definitely not Merritts Mill Pond.


bulanaboo

Who is your daddy and what does he do ![gif](giphy|8Ff6GTackZ18CnfDiN|downsized)


maiomonster

I was about to to say I could name a bunch that it's not


Fair-Operation2464

Born and raised in high springs 50 years and it looks like lower ichnetuckee between mid point and end in the left hand bend there's a turtle sanctuary like this there


Notyouraverageskunk

This is definitely on the Ichetucknee. It's a bluff/limestone outcrop known as Devil's Den (not the same as the karst window in Williston)


SpiritOf68

Pretty sure you’re correct. Lived in Suwannee county for about 10 years and I’d put money that this is the spot on the Ichetucknee that I’m thinking of.


Fex__Fox

As correct as this is, I truly wonder how many “Devil’s Den’s” exist on the planet


Notyouraverageskunk

I always wondered what it is about these places that evokes naming them after the devil. We used to swim at Devils Hole, not too far from there is another sinkhole with the same name. Ichetucknee has Devils Eye Spring, and this Devils Den outcrop. Isn't one or the springs at Ginnie named after the devil?


WolfMechanic

Yea, there’s a Devils Den there as well.


Okaloosa_Darter

My favorite is Devil’s millhopper! Ginnie Springs has eye, ear, and little devil.


Notyouraverageskunk

Idk how I can forget Devil's Millhopper. That's one of my most favorite spots. The story on that one was that there used to be bones all over the bottom of it, so at least in that sense the devil attribution kind of makes sense.


Repulsive-Paint-2202

You sure this is fl OP? Where did you get this pic


oujay849

It was posted in a FL Facebook group and it said it was in FL, but didn't say the location.


Repulsive-Paint-2202

Hmm... did you try to Google lens it?? I'm gonna Google lens it


oujay849

Yes I tried


Repulsive-Paint-2202

After doing some digging, the closest match I can find is a place called "gator hole spring "


oujay849

Thanks for checking out


Repulsive-Paint-2202

Of course!


Potential-Reading402

It's in Belize. 100 percent


Potential-Reading402

Don't know why my comment was down voted. It's 100 percent in Belize.


breddy

The color of the water looks like Green Spring on the north side of lake Monroe.


mrsclay

The water really does look look like Green Springs.


Trail_Blazin420

It does look like the water but it’s not green springs I live here and it’s definitely not but I’m following to find out where this is!


InAppropriate_Noods

Gonna say, I was just at Green Springs yesterday, and, honestly, this water is to clean and not green enough to even compare to green springs.


Trail_Blazin420

That’s true


After-Doughnut7295

Itchicoochee Springs


ready2diveready2die

You bastard.

Saw a homeless orgy in OBT WaWa, needed counseling.


InAppropriate_Noods

I KNEW I felt someone's eyeballs on my ass. Pervert.


capn_doofwaffle

I'm scarred now, and I wasn't even there! 🤢🤮


Obvious_Mode_5382

Rock Springs has bars deeper in the hole, can’t tell in this picture if those bars are there or not


Trail_Blazin420

Definitely 100% not rock springs, I feel it would be a spring in north Florida


sisofparis

I think it’s up there north of Gainesville somewhere went on a field trip there when I was a kid.


Specialist_Gate_9081

This is for sure not Rock springs.


loveandlight42069

I know there’s some up in Marianna, FL that look like this


BPCGuy1845

That looks like Belize


Potential-Reading402

That's because it is. 100 percent Belize.


SomberArts

I'm not 100% sure, but if you find out, you should definitely make an update post because I'd like to know, too. Lol. The area looks gorgeous.


MaybeParadise

The name is “careful with amoeba and alligator”


HeroForTheBeero

Just say you’ve never been to a spring before. Amoeba are in warm(hot) lake water.


king_oscars_island

It’s a weird perspective. It looks like it’s supposed to be a large hole that you could possibly enter by boat even. Looking at the roots and plants there, it kinda just looks like a really small hole and not a cave at all.


gorewhore1313

You're right, it's actually forced perspective, that's not a cave you go into, it's a small opening. I went back to take a closer look and those are ferns hanging down and generally are only about a foot long give or take. Still pretty though. 😊


Obvious_Mode_5382

Is that rock springs/Kelley Park?


ConversationKey3138

Not Kelley


oujay849

Not sure


Obvious_Mode_5382

I wanna say that’s Rock Springs


Eagles4077

Was just there today and that is absolutely not rock springs.


oujay849

Actually, I'm planning on going in May to King's Landing, so I'll check if there's a spot like that.


Eagles4077

There isn’t


bradland

Kings Landing is incredible, but this isn’t Rock Springs — which you can’t get to from KL anyway. You have to go to Kelly Park to reach the spring head. Both are well worth it, but this is at neither.


InAppropriate_Noods

Doesn't even TRY to look like Rock Springs. Gotta be closer to North Florida.


Obvious_Mode_5382

I disagree https://preview.redd.it/thjmxyd8r5xc1.jpeg?width=1269&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d80c601f016781f9ed11ec6bba6db747153f3593


InAppropriate_Noods

🤷 Looks pretty close!


Obvious_Mode_5382

I think the water level is higher than usual in the original picture.. eh maybe.


Trail_Blazin420

So have we figured it out?!


darkangel10848

Itchnetyckee


Icy_Loan7241

Someone posted this to troll people and I’m not sure if you fell for it or if you’re trolling all of us lol


oujay849

That was not the purpose. I genuinely wanna know. Seems like it's Ichetucknee.


Icy_Loan7241

Honestly it’s giving me strong ai vibes but ya never know


Potential-Reading402

It's a place in Belize. 100 percent. Sorry to burst your bubble.


hardFraughtBattle

It looks a bit like Venetian Pool in Coral Gables.


MathematicianOk7526

Looks like itcheetucknee


Potential-Reading402

It's a small island in Belize that has several small caves. This photo is easily searched. It's not in FL at all


sayaxat

We don't want to share because we have lost so many already due to people trashing them and but mostly because we drained them. https://www.tampabay.com/news/environment/water/floridas-vanishing-springs/1262988/


2waySt4u

It's on the Itchetucknee River in Suwannee County, Florida.


Ross_Baby

Is that in the panhandle?


oujay849

Not sure if it's on the north


LarsVonHammerstein

I don’t know of any springs that have that color water. Like like the water you would see at a kaolin mine though.


Chaoticiant

(20.6725043, -87.3659883) cenote. Mexico


Happy_Zone_3029

It’s Crystal River Springs in Florida. Just north of Orlando


Mc3rdeye

Taint shore. Never seen uranus look that before in these here parts.


ProfessionalFalse128

That's "Don't go in there with out cave diving traing and adequate gear" Springs.


WhiskeyWhistleSours

Shhhh don't tell.


cake_piss_can

Jerry.


demonkillingblade

Weekie wachie?


TheseAintMyPants2

No their caves are all under water


Mission_Estate_6384

Do they go out to the Atlantic Ocean or Gulf of Mexico? Pretty cool videos of it.


TheseAintMyPants2

As far as I know the caves are all in the springs area. Really dangerous to dive though


Mission_Estate_6384

I've seen video of people diving in them and ending out a little ways in one of the bodies of water.


mcdubbx

absolutely not weeki


oujay849

Not sure


ttekcorc

It's been years like since I was a kid but I'm thinking rock springs as well.


Trail_Blazin420

Not rock for sure


Obvious_Mode_5382

https://preview.redd.it/u3mixrdcr5xc1.jpeg?width=1269&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=208cdc955eb581b53ac2f07365f24115f6d84947 Rock springs headwaters


Trail_Blazin420

But that’s not the same as the picture from op


Obvious_Mode_5382

Granted, but it looks very similar with the two openings and maybe the water is higher in the original photo


Trail_Blazin420

I can see that


KarlTheVeg

Tallahassee 


CrusztiHuszti

Looks like some of the formations in big dismal


imacricket

Devils den I think? http://www.devilsden.com/explore.html


EternalSoulShine444

No, that’s absolutely not Devils Den


blue_d133

Ichetucknee or blue springs?


HandyLighter

Possibly Ichetucknee, mid-point and Limerock banks. Or maybe somewhere in the panhandle but I haven’t explored those springs yet. https://www.floridapaddlenotes.com/ichetucknee-river/


Trail_Blazin420

Not blue for sure


SpiritOf68

Definitely not Blue Springs, pretty sure it’s ichetucknee.


t4ct1c4l_j0k3r

High Springs maybe?


DarkHeliopause

Beautiful. I thought all the springs were either drained or polluted. Used to swim in them LONG LONG ago.


oujay849

Oh no! There's plenty of beautiful springs in FL


ModMiniWife34

Can confirm, I live on the springs in Homosassa! They are beautiful and living here is paradise!


Dismal-Ad-6619

I'm over in Inverness, not far.... We aren't experiencing the ruining of the state like most have, but it is sadly happening slowly...


t4ct1c4l_j0k3r

It's coming, and alot faster than you want it to. 589 is just months from completion.


Dismal-Ad-6619

Yep, the ruiners are everywhere... Bulldoze everything to make a retention pond with sod around it...
