Chassahowitzka Wildlife Management Area (WMA)
This vast protected area in Hernando County preserves diverse habitats, including sandhill, wetlands, and forests. It’s home to various wildlife species and popular for deer and hog hunting. Cave diving is also a draw, but safety is crucial.
Kayaking in Homosassa
Explore the Nature Coast Canoe and Kayak Trail, a 20-mile route winding through salt marshes. It passes through wildlife refuges, offering birding and wildlife viewing opportunities. Ensure you have essential equipment, including a life jacket, and plan your route in advance.
For a more manageable experience, consider paddling the trail in 5-mile segments, which typically take 3 to 4 hours to complete. It’s a great opportunity for birding and wildlife viewing, especially the first stretch from Fort Island Trail Park along the Crystal and Salt Rivers down to the John Brown Boat Ramp. Leave a second vehicle at your planned take-out point for convenience.
