Worthington Springs Seay Park offers convenient access to the Santa Fe River in north-central Florida. This ramp is located on the southern side of a large river bend and provides staging areas on either side of the launch in shallow water with a limerock and sand bottom. Paddlers and boaters should be aware of swift currents flowing from upstream to downstream at this location, particularly important for kayakers and canoeists planning their trips.
The Santa Fe River in this section is suitable for various water activities including kayaking, canoeing, and motorized boating. The upper Santa Fe River corridor between Worthington Springs and High Springs offers scenic paddling opportunities through Florida's Atlantic Coastal Plain ecosystem. From this access point, paddlers can explore downstream toward High Springs and O'Leno State Park, where the river features unique geological formations including a notable "sink" and "rise." This area is a popular destination for both day trips and longer expeditions along the Santa Fe River.
