🤿 THERE’S ANOTHER WORLD BENEATH THE SANTA FE RIVER.

Devil’s Ear Spring is part of the Devil Spring system at privately operated Ginnie Springs, where clear spring water and the darker tannic water of the Santa Fe can create an unforgettable contrast.

But what you see from above is only part of the story.

Devil’s Ear is the largest of the three springs in the system, and beneath them lies a complex underwater cave system renowned among cave divers.

It’s a remarkable reminder that some of Florida’s most fascinating landscapes are the ones we can’t see from the surface.

šŸ—ŗļø Find Devil’s Ear in Spring Seeker, then use the Seeker Map to explore more springs along the Santa Fe River.

Starting OCT 1 the park is welcoming registered campers and visitors arriving from the Santa Fe River.

Regular day-use parking and walk-in access are not yet available during this phase, but the spring can once again be enjoyed by eligible park guests and river visitors.

šŸ’™ GILCHRIST BLUE SPRINGS IS BEGINNING A PHASED REOPENING! šŸ’™

Beginning October 1, Gilchrist Blue Springs State Park will begin welcoming registered campers and visitors arriving from the Santa Fe River.

Anderson’s Outdoor Adventures will resume paddling services to Gilchrist Blue Springs beginning October 9! šŸ›¶

One of the experiences returning is our Blue Springs Hopper—giving visitors a way to paddle directly to Gilchrist Blue Springs from our location at Poe Springs Park.

Here’s how it works:

šŸ›¶ Begin your adventure with us at Poe Springs Park.

šŸ’¦ Paddle the Santa Fe River to Gilchrist Blue Springs.

šŸŠ End your paddle at Gilchrist Blue, where you can enjoy the spring and spend time inside the park.

🚐 We pick you up at Gilchrist Blue Springs and shuttle you back to Poe Springs Park.

This provides a way to experience Gilchrist Blue Springs during the phased reopening, even though regular day-use parking and walk-in access will not yet be available.

Why are our services beginning October 9 instead of October 1? Our family will be celebrating a very special milestone—our son is getting married! šŸ’ As a family-owned and operated business, we are grateful to celebrate this moment together before beginning this exciting new chapter at Blue Springs.

We cannot tell you how excited we are to return and once again help visitors experience the beauty of Gilchrist Blue Springs and the Santa Fe River.

Reservations and additional trip information will be available through AOAFUN.COM.

Who is ready to paddle back to Blue Springs? šŸ’¦šŸ›¶

Good news—the coffee is still flowing!

We previously thought we’d have to close for some window repairs, but we found a way to stay OPEN! We will be safely blocking off the specific work area, so your favorite morning brew is totally safe.

Come grab your caffeine fix and say hi!

Remember that we are located in the old Gilchrist Journal Building, right beside Capital City Bank!

We will be opening at 6am! Hope to see you there!
