The Wekiva River, also known as Wekiva Creek or Wekiva Run, is a tributary of the Waccasassa River in Levy County, Florida that originates at Wekiva Spring. From the spring the river meanders westward and then southward about 7 miles (11 km) to where it flows into the Waccasassa River. It is fed along the way by Mule Creek and the Little Wekiva River. The river is centrally located in the area between the Withlacoochee and Suwannee Rivers that is often referred to as the Gulf Hammock.^[1]
