==Geography== Geographically, Suwannee County is situated on a limestone bed riddled with underground freshwater streams, which surface in dozens of beautiful springs. This phenomenon of "[[Karst topography]]" gives the area a local supply of renewable fresh water and abundant sources of fishing. The county is known as a world-class [[cave diving]] site for [[Scuba diving|SCUBA]] enthusiasts, and underwater cave explorer [[Sheck Exley]] chose to live here in order to have close access to many of the springs. Fishing sites include a number of small lakes about 5 miles east of the town. Suwannee Lake is the most well stocked and notable, but there is also Workman Lake, Dexter Lake, Campground Lake, Little Lake Hull, White Lake, Tiger Lake, Bachelor Lake, and Peacock Lake.<ref>Larry Kinder, ''Flyfisher's Guide to Freshwater Florida'', p. 206, Wilderness Adventures Press, 2003 {{ISBN|1885106971}}.</ref> The [[Twin Rivers State Forest]] is a {{convert|14882|acre|km2|0|adj=on}} Florida State forest located in [[North Central Florida]], near Live Oak.<ref name=ffs>{{cite web|title=Twin Rivers State Forest|url=http://www.floridaforestservice.com/state_forests/twin_rivers.html|publisher=Florida Forest Service|access-date=May 28, 2012}}</ref>
