But the excitement doesn’t end there! After your airboat ride, dive into the captivating exhibits at Sawgrass Recreation Park.

The park’s friendly handlers are always eager to share amazing stories and facts about these incredible creatures and their natural habitats.
Continue your journey at the Glades Exhibit, where you can immerse yourself in the rich history and conservation efforts of the Everglades through an engaging video presentation. Marvel at the African spur thigh tortoises, ranging in size from a hefty 20 pounds to a colossal 100 pounds (9 to over 45 kg), and meet the rare gopher tortoises, rescued from a construction site. Don’t forget to say hello to the vibrant iguanas and the colorful peacocks that add a splash of beauty to the park.
