The
Blackwater River
of
Florida
is a 56.6-mile-long (91.1 km)
[1]
river rising in southern
Alabama
and flowing through the
Florida Panhandle
to the
Gulf of Mexico
. The river enters Florida in
Okaloosa County
and flows through
Santa Rosa County
to
Blackwater Bay
, an arm of
Pensacola Bay
. The river passes through
Blackwater River State Forest
and
Blackwater River State Park
.
Milton
, the
county seat
of Santa Rosa County, is located on the river.
The Blackwater's sandy bottom, white beaches and large sandbars contrast with the dark
tannic
water that gives the river its name. "Blackwater" is a translation of the
Choctaw
word
oka-lusa
, which means "water black".
