Tenmile Swamp
About Tenmile Swamp
Tenmile Swamp is a distinctive water destination spanning Calhoun and Gulf Counties in Florida. This expansive swamp covers over 4,000 acres, offering a broad, open water experience that feels more like a vast wetland than a traditional lake. Its surface is remarkably shallow, with no significant depth, creating a unique environment for wildlife and water enthusiasts. Situated near the town of Wewahitchka, Tenmile Swamp provides a quiet, natural setting that reflects the character of Florida's coastal wetlands. The shallow waters mean the area is accessible and inviting for those interested in exploring its natural beauty, though it lacks deep water features common to other lakes in the region.
