Description

Florida nightlife is about to get wild! The Gator Night Shine adventure takes you deep into the domain of Florida's most famous reptile, the alligator!

Starting at dusk and armed with only a flashlight and gator food, you bravely make your way along the winding wooden walkways of Gatorland's Alligator Breeding Marsh. The sounds of the night come alive around you as the rustle of feathers overhead and the splashing of water nearby signal that you are not alone.

Turning your flashlight towards the water, you suddenly become aware of hundreds of hungry, glowing, red eyes slowly making their way closer... it's now your turn to experience the "Real Florida."

A fun and educational tour for kids of all ages, Gatorland's Gator Night Shine Tour is one swamp-stompin' adventure you don't want to miss!

What a great day to spend away from the usual parks. We are a family of 5. 3 x teenagers who are hard to please at times. This park ticked all the boxes. Educational, varied and most importantly fun. I would recommend you book online and pay that optional extra cost of animal encounter, Tran ride and croc feed food. We all really enjoyed the day and highly recommend for a day well spent.

My husband came here years ago and said I would love it, and he was right! From the gator shows and petting zoo, to the kindness and efficiency of the employees, this made for a super fun day! I learned a lot and enjoyed seeing people of all ages and backgrounds enjoying the park.

"Gators in their natural habitat"

Beautiful surroundings, natural ponds, lots of lush trees - easy walk around the park. This place is great for nature lovers. We were happy to see gators and crocs mainly in their natural habitat, not in sad little pools like in many zoos (although there were a couple of pool-crocs as well). Inside the park is a short swanp walking path that was great. Great park when not too over-crowded.

Super fun! Informative and engaging activities. Really enjoyed feeding fish to the baby gators, visiting the aviary with seedsicles, and going on the swamp walk. Bring some cash for the seedsicles. The Gatorland workers were all friendly and pleasant, especially the fish vendor and cotton-candy artist. Loved how preservation-minded the gator care was.
