Overview
Florida Lake is a wonderful haven of tranquility close to main roads that lead straight to the heart of the city. Besides taking part in water sports such as sailing and canoeing, residents use the park for picnics, braais or simply taking their dogs for a quick walk. A number of outdoor facilities can be rented, while a childrens playground and putt-putt course provide additional entertainment. For the birding enthusiast there is a wide range of aquatic birds to delight in as the dam is situated next to a bird sanctuary, with the dam serving as a natural habitat.
