Levy County, Florida
Looking for Florida’s typical tourist traps and crowded beaches? You’re not going to find it here because Levy County is a different kind of Florida experience. It’s on the Gulf Coast, but feels worlds away from the state’s busy resort towns. Cedar Key, a tiny island city, is the biggest draw here.
The county has more wildlife refuges than shopping malls. Manatees hang out in the warm springs during winter. You’ll find plenty of opportunities for fishing, kayaking, and bird watching. The Suwannee River forms part of its western border.
Farming and fishing are still big parts of the local economy. Locals enjoy a slower pace of life, far from the state’s urban centers. Levy County is a glimpse of old Florida, before the tourist boom hit. It’s quiet, natural, and proud of its rural roots.
