One of the newer attractions in the Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge is Three Sisters Springs, which contains 57 acres of wildlife flanked by a boardwalk for strolling through it all. The area features underwater vents, sand boils and manatee-filled crystal-clear spring water that feed Kings Bay, the headwaters of the Crystal River. There's no on-site parking, but you can take the trolley to the boardwalk.
