Historical thermal springs in Florida (1981 list)
The US government's Thermal Springs List (NOAA, 1981) records 1 more warm and hot springs in Florida that we have not been able to match to a current, public site. Many are on private ranches, in wells or no longer flowing, so we list only the name, county and recorded temperature, and no map. Do not visit any of them without the landowner's permission.
