Gatorland Entrance
Gatorland Entrance
You can see alligators, crocodiles, snakes and birds up close and personal when you visit Gatorland, the Alligator Capital of the World. Kids will be enthralled when they walk through the giant gator mouth to enter this 110-acre theme park and wildlife preserve.
If shows like Animal Planet and the Crocodile Hunter leave you yearning to experience these fascinating animals for yourself, then Gatorland is just waiting for you! You'll get a good glimpse of Alligator Island - home of the park's largest reptiles - and you may even get to see Alf, an American alligator whose 15 feet long and weighs over 1,000 pounds! Many tropical birds also await you at Alligator Island, but if it's bird of the pink variety you're after, look no further than Flamingo Lagoon, home to a colony of American Flamingos. There are flocks of birds waiting for you to feed them (nominal fee) at the Very Merry Aviary and prepare to make some slithery friends at the Snakes of Florida exhibit.

For the little ones, there's Lilly's Pad play area and the petting zoo at Allie's Barnyard. Need a break from the Nature experience for a couple hours? Take a train ride or take in a one-of-a-kind show -- you can see a giant crocodile jump several feet out of the water! Bring the whole family to Gatorland and enjoy a day of fun, sun and, of course, alligators!

Our condolences on the fire. I could have cried, remembering what Gatorland has meant to my kids, now 43 and 39 when we lived in Orlando. The memories, pics taken on the premises and sitting on the Gatorland teeth. Old Albert, the Galapagos tortoise who liked to have his chin scratched. And Bonecrusher....when the news came over the TV tht he had died, my little girl was hysterical and when she said her prayers that night, after her list of petitions added: 'and please bless Bonecrusher'. Mr. Godwin, Sr. used to talk to us a lot and told us of Susie the Alligator who was depressed---how can you tell?---was16 years old and never been kissed, as it were. He put her in with Bonecrusher hoping to alleviate her frustration. She was there two weeks before Bonecrusher even noticed her! I told Mr. Godwin it was his own fault---she was Gator, he was Croc and he probably did not believe in mixed marriages---AND he was over 100 years old, before the days of Viagra. Again, good luck on your renovations.

We went to Gatorland last August during our Family Vacation and it was still the greatest. I had spent a lot of time in Florida as a child and visited Gatorland several times each summer. It felt good when my children had their pictures taken in front of the entrance and I placed them next to the picture I had of myself in the same spot 30 years ago. Gatorland is timeless and it always offers something new each time you go, we will be visiting again this August and can't wait to take another generation of pictures when we go this time.

June 16th was our second visit to Gatorland in 14 months. We absolutely love it. We enjoy seeing the real animals in their real habitats. We saw breeding gators & birds with their newly hatched babies all in their natural surroundings. We will back next trip to Florida. Gatorland is reality in a land of fantasy!
