Gatorland: The Alligator Capital of the World
A trip to Florida isn't complete without a day spent at Gatorland.
What you'll do
Gatorland has been delighting visitors for over half a century. This historic Florida mainstay brings you gators... and lots of them. Watch them at rest and play, witness a live alligator feeding frenzy, and watch as a brave handler attempts to wrestle an eight-footer.
Gatorland pridesitself on being low-tech, low-maintenance, and on providing millions of visitors with an authentic Florida experience. Despite the name, Gatorland is about much more than alligators. At 110 acres, the park is a haven for other wildlife too, showcasing the beauty of the swamp as an ecologically-diverse paradise of flora and fauna.
