Homeschool Mom Posted January 14, 2019 Share Posted January 14, 2019 Hello All, I would like to take a group of families camping somewhere along the Peace River in Florida to hunt fossils. Does anyone have a suggestion for a campground, or even just a great spot for finding fossils? We don't necessarily need to camp. Thank you for any suggestions!

goatinformationist Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Certainly not Ginnie on the Sante Fe river? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sacha Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 There are several campgrounds on the Peace River, but anywhere close by them, the river is no longer productive. If you can camp and then kayak, you'll be better off. Zolfo Springs, Wauchula and arcadia are all locations to google campgrounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaleoNoel Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 On my trip to the Florida last year I stayed at the Peace River RV & Camping Resort in Wauchula, at that campground there's river access and I went fossil hunting only about 1,000 feet from my cabin. It's also where I found this bird talon! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Pristis Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Oops! I had a senior moment there. Ginnie Springs is on the Santa Fe River, not the Peace. http://pristis.wix.com/the-demijohn-page What seest thou else In the dark backward and abysm of time? ---Shakespeare, The Tempest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
