TOMOKA STATE PARKTomoka State Park has some of the best canoeing and kayaking in the state of Florida. This writeup is from the home page created by the Florida State Park Service. I can't improve on it, so here it is. Native Americans once dwelled here, living off fish-filled lagoons. Today, these waters are popular for canoeing, boating, and fishing. The park protects a variety of wildlife habitats and endangered species, such as the West Indian manatee. Tomoka is a bird-watcher's paradise, with over 160 species sighted, especially during the spring and fall migrations. Visitors can stroll a one-half mile nature trail through a hardwood hammock that was once an indigo field for an 18th century British landowner. A boat ramp gives boaters and canoeists access to the river. The Park Store offers snacks, camping supplies, and canoe rentals. For general information about the park, please call 386-676-4050.
