Lake Verona is a cool lake found right inside Avon Park, Florida. Even though it's only about 41 acres (17 ha) big, it gets super deep really fast! At its deepest point, it's around 80 feet (24 m) down.

Exploring Lake Verona

If you love being on the water, Lake Verona has a special spot where you can launch your boat. You'll find this boat launch where Church Street meets the lake's edge.

There's also a public park right by the lake. This park is perfect for families, with picnic tables and covered areas called shelterhouses. And guess what? There's even a public swimming beach!

Swimming Safely

While the beach is fun, remember that the water gets deep very quickly. So, it's super important to be careful and swim with caution. Always make sure an adult is watching you!
