Everglades National Park is one of the most beautiful parks, you’ll ever visit. It’s strange combination of warm weather and species, that you can not see anywhere else in the world. Natural habitat to many endangered animals like West Indian Manatee, American Crocodile or Florida Panther.
Third largest National Park in the United states is only a one hour drive from very busy town of Miami. You will take either US 41 West, to get there and then get on one of the boat tours around Everglades or you can go down to Homestead and go trough the main park entrance. Don’t forget to charge your camera, take a plenty of water and mosquito repellant. There is also no food to be purchased, except little general store for campers.
