In 1946, a former U.S. Navy man by the name of Newton Perry, found that Weeki Wachee as a good site for a new business. Back in 1946, U.S. 19 was a small two-lane road. All the other roads were dirt; there were no gas stations, no groceries, and no movie theaters. There was more wildlife that lived there than humans!

Weeki Wachee Springs State Park if one of Florida’s oldest attractions that have been entertaining people since 1947. The Springs are one of the deepest, naturally formed underwater caverns in the U.S. Weeki Wachee was named by the Seminole Indians.
