Everglades Holiday Park, Theme park in Florida, US
Description
Everglades Holiday Park sits in wetlands and offers airboat tours through waterways where visitors observe native animals in their natural setting. The site also features alligator shows, direct animal encounters, and a restaurant serving regional food.
History
The park was founded to give people access to the Everglades ecosystem, which became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. This recognition confirmed the global importance of the wetlands for the environment.
Culture
Guides explain the wetland ecosystem during tours, showing how alligators behave and which bird species live here. Visitors learn why these swamps matter so much for Florida's nature.
Practical
Wear comfortable clothes and sun protection, as tours happen mostly outdoors and sun exposure is significant. It helps to arrive early to avoid long waits and have more time to explore.
Did you know?
Handlers work with uncaged alligators and explain to visitors in detail how to safely watch and respect these animals. This direct experience lets visitors understand the skills and instincts of these predators up close.
