Wakulla State Forest, Protected forest area in Wakulla County, Florida, United States.
Wakulla State Forest encompasses 12,000 acres of diverse landscape with pine forests, hardwood swamps, and wetland ecosystems supporting native wildlife populations.
Native American tribes inhabited the lands of present-day Wakulla State Forest before European settlement, leaving behind artifacts that document their presence in the region.
