Dixie County
Nestled between the Suwanne and Steinhatchee Rivers, Dixie County is one of the least populated areas in Florida. National wildlife and management areas make up most of the land area - offering plenty of space to explore, hike and kayak. Fanning Springs, located along the Suwannee River at the east edge of the county, is one of Florida's most popular state parks. And for certified SCUBA divers ... be sure to check out the "City of Hawkinsville" - a 141 foot long largely intact paddlewheel steamboat sunk in the Suwannee River near Old Town.
