Lake Okeechobee is located in the heart of south central Florida. Named by the Seminole Indians, Okeechobee means "big water" and that it is, covering over 730 square miles. It is the largest of Florida's lakes and the second largest freshwater lake in the United States.

After communities around the lake were devastated by the storm surges from hurricanes in the 1920s, the Herbert Hoover Dike was built to encircle the lake.

Visitors are attracted to the natural beauty of the area and the abundant birds, fish, and wildlife.
