Brief DescriptionNational Park

CategoryNational Park
DescriptionSpanning the southern tip of the Florida peninsula and most of Florida Bay, Everglades National Park is the only subtropical preserve in North America. It contains both temperate and tropical plant communities, including sawgrass prairies, mangrove and cypress swamps, pinelands, and hardwood hammocks, as well as marine and estuarine environments. The park is known for its rich bird life, particularly large wading birds, such as the roseate spoonbill, wood stork, great blue heron and a variety of egrets. It is also the only place in the world where alligators and crocodiles exist side by side.


Everglades National Park has been designated a World Heritage Site, an International Biosphere Reserve, and a Wetland of International Importance.


The schedule for tram tours at Shark Valley may be obtained at 305/221-8455. The schedule for boat tours at Everglades City may be obtained at 239/695-2591. The Flamingo Lodge and Marina may be reached at 239/695-3101.
