Florida Stream Access Laws

Florida access law holds pretty close to the federal definition of navigability, but some state cases suggest that it’s a bit more lenient, and recognizes recreation as a determinant of what’s navigable. The public may use navigable waters up to the high water mark so long as they access through public lands. There are, however, some exceptions where submerged land was either granted into private control before statehood, or sold by the state into private hands.
