Zephyrhills Voyage Tips and guide

Contents

The town, which had a population of 16,000 in 2019, was founded as "Abbott" in 1888. A post office was established eight years later, followed by the formation of the Zephyrhills Colony Company for Civil War veterans in 1909. The name was changed to Zephyrhills and incorporated soon after the formation of the colony company. Roughly a hundred years after its founding, in 2001, the town was added to the National Register of Historic Places.

The airport is the location of Skydive City, Inc. The company, which was founded in 1990, is the largest woman-owned drop zone in the world.

The town is best known in Florida, however, for the "Zephyrhills" label on water bottles, as the water bottle company is based here.

I-75 runs north-south west of the city. FL-56 connects to the Zephyrhills area from the west.
