Three Sisters Springs
Score4.7Turquoise spring run with a raised boardwalk and shallow clear water—prime for close manatee portraits, underwater textures, and panoramic waterscapes. Best visited Nov–Mar for manatee sightings; sunrise and golden hour give warm side lighting on the boardwalk and glassy reflections. Accessible boardwalk and visitor parking are limited—expect crowds on weekends; refuge rules require distance from wildlife and no swimming near manatees. Bring polarizer and telephoto for respectful wildlife shots.
