While Florida might not be the state you would visit in order to see the most waterfalls in one place, there are still falls that are worth checking out. For instance, this particular waterfall in Florida is pure magic at over 100-feet and happens to be located in a lush, vibrant, beautiful state park. You can make an afternoon out of this visit, which includes bird-watching, hiking, camping, and even a visit to the tallest waterfall in Florida.
Looking for a little bit of nature to pepper into your weekend Florida itinerary? A trip to Falling Waters State Park might just be the ticket.

But perhaps the primary reason why visitors flock to this state park is to see the tallest waterfall in Florida—Falling Waters Falls.

The actual waterfall cascades over 100-feet down into a deep, 20-foot wide cylindrical pit—which then flows as a small stream, dropping 73-feet to the bottom of the sinkhole.

What’s even more fascinating about this natural wonder is that nobody knows where the final destination of the water is.
