A great place to watch birds, alligators and turtles. Very peaceful environment as well. Did the 1.5 miles which is divided into two boardwalks, the longer being a mile. Lots of parking and a nice nature center. Will definitely visit again, truly gorgeous and peaceful.

We enjoyed coming here twice after changing plans due to the Everglades being rather bird-free. We were not disappointed as there were LOTS of species here including a Least Bittern which we've seen only 4x in more than 30 years of birding.

My first time going here in the last couple days and I already want to go back! I saw a lot of birds and interesting caterpillars with fur on them. This place was serene and peaceful and I can't wait to make the drive back up here to take more pictures!

We enjoyed this park and it's 1.5 miles of board walks. You may want to bring masks as you are on a board walk and sometimes people come from the opposite direction.

They close Wakodahatcheee about 6:50 the night we went so arrive early. Both parks have very good views of birds and water.…
