Lake Eola Park

attractions★ 4.7 (24,631)

Lake Eola is the green heart of downtown Orlando: 23 acres around a lake that's technically a sinkhole, with the landmark Linton E. Allen Memorial Fountain lit at its center and the famous swan paddle boats on the water. A 0.9-mile path circles it, and the Sunday farmers market makes it a local ritual. It's free, walkable, and the best low-cost thing to do downtown.

From the Wayfind guide

Downtown's swan boats, Sunday farmers market, and the city's best sunset walk, free.

Best time to go

Sunday for the 10am–3pm farmers market, or golden hour when the fountain lights come on.

Local tip

Rent a swan paddle boat in late afternoon so you're on the water when the fountain lights up at dusk.
