I’ve been to Everglades National Park several times because I lived in Naples, Florida. It’s a fun place to take visiting friends and family.
They have the best airboat rides to alligators up close and personal. It’s also really incredible to see the walking mangrove tree and the cardinal airplants that attach themselves to anything and everything. The Everglades National Park protects the one and a half million acre wetlands on the southern tip of Florida. The Everglades is made up of coastal mangroves, sawgrass marshes and pine flatwoods that are home to hundreds of animal species such as the endangered leatherback turtle, Florida panther and West Indian manatee. The park is the largest tropical wilderness in the United States.
