Area Overview
Leesburg is known as the best place to enjoy a day on the water. Set between three of the most picturesque and welcoming lakes, Leesburg invites residents and visitors to relax in natural beauty. Leesburg’s liquid jewel is Venetian Gardens, a 110-acre park on Lake Harris that features a public swimming pool with bathhouse, baseball stadium, sand volleyball court, picnic tables, walking paths and numerous tranquil spots to fish. Enjoy a leisurely stroll across the pedestrian bridges leading to private islands that offer scenic views of the lake and the park’s canals. Lake Harris is the largest lake and considered by many to be the most beautiful lake in the county. With an average depth of only 14 feet, bass and pan fishing are both very good. To the north and east is seven miles long, two and one-half mile wide Lake Griffin, the eighth largest lake in Florida. The north half of the lilly-padded lake is considered best for bass fishing using artificial worms, surfaces lures and shiners. In the winter, there’s plenty of speck and in the summer, you can fill your boat with panfish.
Includes Cities/Towns: Fruitland Park, Lady Lake, Leesburg, Okahumpka, Yalaha.
