Watersheds of North America are large drainage basins which drain to separate oceans, seas, gulfs, or endorheic basins. There are six generally recognized hydro-logical continental divides which divide the continent into seven principal drainage basins spanning three oceans ( Arctic , Atlantic and Pacific ) and one endorheic basin.
The west side of the divide continues to be the Suwannee River and then the Withlacoochee River watersheds. The southern terminus of the Eastern Continental Divide is at the triple divide between the St. Johns, Peace, and Kissimmee River watersheds, which is in Haines City, Florida on the Lake Wales Ridge.

It is an important step in many areas of environmental science, engineering, and management, for example to study flooding, aquatic habitat, or water pollution.
