Complete information about visiting Everglades National Park is now on National Park Planner!
Mention Everglades National Park and most people think of the “river of grass,” a flooded prairie that was popularized by airboat rides and TV shows like Gentle Ben. However, the park offers a stunning variety of environments including a maze of mangrove islands, bays along the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean, and hardwood and pine forests. These environments host all sorts of animals: dolphins, sharks, manatees, crocodiles, alligators, panthers, bears, and dozens and dozens of bird species. Of all the National Parks, the Everglades has the most and widest variety of animals, and the easiest to find and see.
