Hudson Grotto

★★★★☆ (9,534)

Hudson Grotto is a prehistoric limestone sink, most likely the oldest inland body of water in Pasco County. This unusual water feature is part fresh, part salt water and descends to depths over 100 feet.

In the shallows, you’ll find a variety of interesting fish and turtles. Large bass, catfish, bluegill and our very own koi will greet you as you enter.
