No pets allowed. We know they’re part of the family, but they’ll need to sit this one out.
Please don’t touch the animals. It’s for their safety and yours.
Feeding the animals isn’t allowed since they’re on a special diet.
No yelling or teasing, please. A calm environment is much better for the animals.
Don’t tap on the glass or bang on enclosures as it can be really stressful for them.
No throwing objects into the habitats. It could hurt the animals or disrupt their space.
Smoking and vaping aren’t allowed anywhere in the Gator Park.
Stay behind fences and barriers. They’re there to keep both you and the animals safe.
Getting around is fairly easy. There’s a wheelchair-accessible ramp right behind the gift shop that leads to the airboat loading area.
Just a heads-up: there are a few steps down to the boat, so if you're using a wheelchair, you’ll need a bit of help getting on board.
Inside the Gator Park, the paths are made of compacted shells and concrete, and all exhibits are on ground level, making it super wheelchair-friendly.
Plan to arrive at least 45-min early to check in before your airboat tour.
Little ones aged 2 years and under ride for free.
Anyone under 16 years old and younger must be accompanied by an adult while exploring the Gator Park.
Cancellation is allowed up to 24 hours before the scheduled start time. Variant-specific cancellation policies may apply.
