Lake Eustis

West of the city of Eustis in Central Florida is where you'll find Lake Eustis. It has a surface area of about 28 km2. It is a spring-fed lake that is a part of the Harris Chain of Lakes, and the Dead River connects it to Lake Harris. Additionally, it has connections to the Ocklawaha River, Haines Creek, and Lake Griffin as well as the St. Johns River. North of Jacksonville, the St. Johns River flows into the Atlantic Ocean. The eastern banks of Lake Eustis are connected to the Eustis Lake Walk, which offers sunset views, 20 boat berths, and 4 gazebos next to the lake's shoreline.

Along with other rivers, Lake Eustis joins the St. Johns River. The closest cities with vacation accommodations, fantastic restaurants, stores, and equipment rentals are Eustis (on the lake's northeastern side) and Tavares (to the south). The renowned Lake Eustis pupfish are a protected species, but anglers come here for the bass. Boating, swimming, sailing, canoeing, kayaking, and windsurfing are additional popular activities. Lake Eustis is one of the best lakes to visit in Florida.
