Stop by a visitor’s center first to learn about the area and how to stay safe and optimize your experience. There are several to choose from, including the Ernest S. Cove Center at the Homestead entrance, the Flamingo Center in the middle, and the historic Royal Palm Center.

One of the best ways to experience as much of the natural beauty of the Everglades as possible in one trip is to follow a trail. The Anhinga Trail, Pa-Hay-Okee Trail, and Mahogany Hammock Trail are a few of the best.

The best things to do in the Everglades are areas that are perfect for wildlife viewing, birdwatching, and relaxing. These include Ten Thousand Islands, Shark Valley, and Nine Mile or Paurotis Pond.

The historic significance of the area can’t be forgotten, and it’s preserved in several important spots that are also some of the best things to do in the Everglades. The Museum of the Everglades captures its history, the H69 Nike Missile Base shows its impact on the Cold War, and Clyde Butcher’s photograph gallery preserves its natural beauty.

A few of the buildings in the Everglades are as unique as they are historically significant. You won’t find an experience like shopping at the Smallwood Store or mailing a letter from the smallest post office in the US anywhere else.

You can even get plenty of delicious treats to eat once you’re done trudging through the swamps. Triad Seafood offers the snow crabs that the area is known for, Gator Grill offers more local cuisine such as gator meat and frog legs, and Robert is Here has delicious milkshakes and smoothies.
