Crystal River Archeological State Park

Florida Home | Florida Sitemap
The site where this interesting outdoor tourist attraction now lies was formerly an important site for native settlers. It acted as a sort of common ground meeting place to exchange, trade and bury the dead. There are several well-plotted remains that are available for touring including extensive mounds and a pre-Columbian temple.

Visitors and volunteers are invited to partake in any of the hands-on activities offered by the park’s archaeological staff. In efforts to make the history of the Florida land more understood and henceforth more appreciated, there are interpretive programs for any age or skill level.

The park is also thoroughly adorned with untouched wildlife. Fishing, hiking and camping are very popular pastimes here. While getting to know the history of the land, it is important to be in direct contact with it.
