Embark on a serene and immersive journey through Central Florida's natural beauty and history. First, visit Hontoon Island State Park, accessible only by boat or ferry. Nestled between the St. Johns River and the Hontoon Dead River, this 1,648 acre park showcases diverse habitats like pine flatwoods, palm/oak hammocks, and cypress swamps, supporting abundant wildlife. Explore hiking trails, including one leading to a large Mayacan Indian shell mound, or enjoy paddling and picnicking. Afterwards, travel to historic DeLand, 'The Athens of Florida'. Founded in 1876, DeLand features Stetson University (Florida's oldest private college), a beautiful Downtown Historic District with early 20th century architecture, boutique shops, the restored Athens Theatre, and several historic homes like the DeLand House Museum and the John B. Stetson House. Discover local art museums and enjoy the town's blend of historical charm, cultural richness, and surrounding natural beauty.
