Sawgrass Recreation Park Everglades Airboat Eco Adventures

45 min air boat ride was really fun and exiting. Captain Zack was very friendly and guided us throughout the tour. Nice cloudy 72 f weather made the ride beautiful, get to see 2 female gators. Exhibit had a mixture of reptiles and pets, had an opportunity to pet a baby gator and was totally worth it. Friendly staff and kid friendly.

4/5 The good * Wetlands and nature! * gators * professional and informative staff * beautiful natural scenery * Everglades! For improvement * the store can be better organized * the animal exhibit can be more creative * the presentation of the big gators can be improved * I wonder if the use of engines means gators always hide, what about a way to get a boat around by paddle? * what if the 4x6 picture cost $10? Maybe you’d move more stock and earn more overall? * sell some food somewhere? You’d earn a lot since many tourists (Asians!!) love to eat and try new food.

Had a thrilling experience of the aero boat to see the alligator in the natural habitat. Till now I had seen those big beasts only in captivity or zoo. Today I saw them in the wild in their natural habitat. Thank you Sawgrass park for this wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

The family had a great time on our 40 min air boat tour. The place has several different size of boats to cater to your preferences such as a large group or more private/small group tour. This area of Florida/Everglades is more grasslands so if your looking for more mangroves type of air boat ride you need to head west towards Naples or western part of the glades. That said, this facility has ample parking, a great gift shop, clean bathrooms, and several exhibits to see alligators, crocodiles, giant turtles, and more. They also have several food options to chose from, including gator bites. :). We recommend Sawgrass for anyone visiting and even the locals (like me) should check this place out. We had a great time.

Awesome experience! Rick was our airboat captain. I appreciated a true local sharing the experience. I'm also a true local, born and raised and he had tons of interesting tidbits. LOTS of tourists... so be aware of that!
