Spring Description
The spring is surrounded on three sides by a brick wall
that is two feet high and six feet across. Water flows from a limestone
opening and creates a strong boil. Flow from the spring forms a creek
that flows several miles through jungle, marsh, and eventually to the Gulf
of Mexico. The creek is 3-5 inches deep, and the water is clear and
has a pronounced sulfur odor. Green algae grows in the run.
The land below the creek is dense floodplain/coastal forest. The
area behind the spring has been cleared to create a public park.
