On Econfina River

The Econfina River is a minor blackwater river in the Big Bend region of Florida. It rises in San Pedro Bay near the boundary between Madison and Taylor counties. From there it flows 44 miles through Taylor County to Apalachee Bay and drains a watershed of 239 square miles. The river lies within the Suwannee River Water Management District. Along its lower course it passes through the 3,004-acre Lower Econfina River Wildlife Management Area, about 16 miles west of Perry. That area includes the Cabbage Creek and Scanlon tracts. Near the mouth is Econfina River State Park, a 4,528-acre park near Lamont that opened in 1989. More about Econfina River.
