LUNCH BREAK IN MARIANNA
Falling Waters State Park Falling Waters State Park | Florida State Parks
I am hoping the water will be falling on this day. I will call ahead and keep you posted. Falling Waters is about a 30-minute drive west of Florida Caverns. If the waters are NOT falling, we will keep heading west and tour historic Defuniak Springs instead!

Chipley FL 32428
• $5 per car State Park entrance fee
• The 73’ waterfalls of Falling Waters State Park, the largest in Florida, fall into a 100-foot sinkhole and disappear into a large cavern. The waterfalls are fed by springs that are dependent on rainfall. The sinkhole is accessed by a paved trail and boardwalk. Fern-covered sinkholes line the boardwalk.
• The sinkholes at Falling Waters State Park were used as a hideout by Indian warriors. The park is also the location of an old gristmill, a distillery and the 1st oil well in Florida!
