'''Jones Swamp''' is a 1,300-acre nature preserve in southwest [[Escambia County]], between [[Bayou Grande]] and [[Bayou Chico]], centered around [[Jones Swamp Creek]].

In May [[2007]], the [[Northwest Florida Water Management District]] awarded a $500,000 grant to the County to help restore the wetland habitat by removing levees that straightened the creek and drained the swamp.<ref>"Grant to help restore swamp," ''Pensacola News Journal'', June 23, 2007.</ref>
