Gainesville Highlight: Palm Point Park

Located on Newman's Lake, Palm Point's natural beauty is unreal. It's a good destination for fishing and birdwatching, but not archaeological digging. Never crowded, it's the best natural spot in Gainesville. It's full of interesting flora and fauna: there are cypress knees and Spanish Moss everywhere and some strange growth formations below the canopy. At low tide, at the tip of the peninsula, you can get a panoramic view of the whole lake.
Don't go on the weekends because it gets crowded with fishermen.
