In the SW section of lake Apopka (Gourd Neck arm).
The spring is 3 miles NW of Oakland. Drive 3.7 mile W on S-438, turn right onto a sand road through an old orange grove and continue for 0.5 miles; the spring is 500 feet N of the end of the road.
The spring pool is roughly circular, between 100 and 200 ft in diameter in a semitropical swamp.
When spring flow is high, the pool is clean and clear, but when flow is low, murky lake water may cloud the pool. Advanced level cave diving (bring your light!).
