Citrus County

Citrus County is a great place to live in the West Central region of Florida. This area, also known as the “Nature Coast,” lies along the Gulf of Mexico and boasts many different attractions. To the West is the waterfront of the Gulf of Mexico, and to the East are the beautiful Henderson and Taska Apopka lakes. Some of the best fishing in the country can be found here – both salt water and fresh water. The gentle manatees, or “sea cows,” which are on the endangered species list, can also be seen all along the coast and in the Crystal River. This threatened species makes Citrus County's spring fed rivers its wintering home. According to the US Fish & Wildlife Services' Aerial Manatee Surveys as many as 400 of these playful creatures can be found in Citrus County at one time. Other wildlife includes sea otter, turtles, alligators, deer, great blue herons and egrets. There are several state parks in the area that offer swimming, hiking and biking. There are numerous golf courses in and around the county, and canoeing is popular in the local rivers.
