Near Tampa

Springs near Tampa

Tampa Bay sits between two spring belts: the dense north-Florida karst country to the north and the handful of Gulf outliers that still offer clear freshwater. Weeki Wachee, Crystal River, and Homosassa anchor most Tampa day trips — manatee season, kayak launches, and reservation-only parks included.

Springs are listed closest-first using curated drive miles from Tampa, not live GPS routing. Pick a profile for hours, tube rules, and whether the main vent is swim-only or shared with boats.
