Peacock Fountain, Winter Park, Visitor Guide & Things to Do Nearby

Peacock Fountain is a fountain on South Park Avenue in Winter Park, Florida, set in the walkable Park Avenue area of the city. It makes an easy, pleasant stop on foot, and it works well as one point on a longer stroll through the neighbourhood.

Tips for your visit

• Plan on a short stop of ten to fifteen minutes for the fountain itself, longer if you want to wander the surrounding streets.
• Go in the morning or late afternoon, when the light is softer and Florida's midday heat is easier to avoid.
• Park Avenue and the streets around it are made for strolling, so combine the fountain with a coffee, a browse or a meal nearby.
• It is an outdoor spot, so wear comfortable shoes, bring water in warm months, and check current local information before you travel.
