Gator Park, Wildlife park in Miami-Dade County, United States.
Gator Park is a wildlife park near Miami that offers boat tours through Florida's wetlands. Visitors observe American alligators, crocodiles, and many bird species living in their natural habitat.
The park was created in the 1950s when entrepreneurs saw the tourism potential of Everglades wildlife. This happened as Miami was growing into a major travel destination.
The park demonstrates traditional airboat techniques that early wetland settlers developed and guides still use today. Visitors can observe how these skills remain adapted to life in the marshes.
The park grounds are open daily with regular boat departures that do not require long waits. Accessible paths and viewing areas allow visitors of different fitness levels to observe the animals.
The park grounds hold both American alligators and American crocodiles, species that normally live in separate areas. This rare setup lets visitors see both species side by side and spot their differences firsthand.
