History

Hontoon Island State Park is a beautiful natural preserve located in the U.S. state of Florida. Situated on Hontoon Island, which is surrounded by the St. Johns River, the park offers visitors a serene and picturesque environment to explore and enjoy outdoor activities.

Hontoon Island has a rich history that dates back thousands of years. The island has been inhabited by Native American communities for centuries, with evidence of human presence found in archaeological sites throughout the area. These indigenous groups, including the Timucua and Mayaca tribes, relied on the abundant resources provided by the river and surrounding wetlands.
