Suwanee River, FL
Suwanee River, FL
The Suwanee River originates in Georgia's Okefenokee Swamp and meanders about 280 miles before reaching the Gulf of Mexico. This is Old Florida territory and you won't find much here except the beauty of the river and the 70-plus springs that feed millions of gallons of water into it every day.
The tannin-stained water of the Suwanee River was the inspiration for Stephen Foster's Suwannee River from "Old Folks at Home," which is Florida's official state song.

Cedar Key is a small town on Way Key, located roughly one-third of the way between Anclote Key and Carrabelle. The island was named for the stand of cedar trees that once grew here and are now gone (logged out) and now the town subsists on fishing, both commercial and sport.
Cedar Key is the top U.S. producer of farm-raised clams. You can find out more at the museum at the Cedar Key Museum State Park, which offers a nature trail, a 1920s home and artifacts depicting Cedar Key's history as a busy port.
