Did you know the South Florida Water Management District is the steward for more than one million acres of public lands?
In celebration of Great Outdoors Month in Florida, we’re highlighting the many ways the public can explore the great outdoors and enjoy the summer sunshine on SFWMD lands.
SFWMD staff has taken great strides to enhance and expand the recreational activities that are available on District-owned property from Orlando to the Florida Keys.
Whether you are an avid adventurer or you just want to enjoy the longer summer days, you will find activities for all ages and skill levels. Camping, hiking, fishing, bird-watching, horseback riding, cycling and stargazing are some of the many recreational activities available to the public.
SFWMD has campgrounds throughout the region that accommodate tents, RVs, groups, equestrians and more. Each campsite offers unique views of South Florida's diverse ecosystem.
Visit SFWMD.gov/recreation to learn more about the District’s recreational sites and discover your next outdoor adventure.
Get out there, explore and remember to #RecreateResponsibly.
