Summer Camp In The Everglades
Summer camp field trip days at Everglades Holiday Park provide ample opportunity for children to learn about the importance of America’s largest subtropical wetlands, all the while enjoying the company of their friends and nature. Not only will the kids be treated to an airboat tour and gator show, but the park also features animal encounters where they can hold Everglades creatures, including a baby American alligator and a ball python. Our Gator Tooth Photo Booth and gift shop are the perfect way to cap an Everglades adventure, commemorating the visit with a group photo or gator tooth necklace.
Learning in the Wetlands: A Unique Field Trip
Exploring the wetlands ecosystem is like no other environment in the world. Parents will love how much the kids learn on their cool Everglades adventure. Students are able to see an environment with endemic species, animals only found here, as this subtropical environment becomes their classroom for the day. The Everglades tell an amazing story of survival and threat with both endangered and invasive species.
The enormous mangrove system of the Everglades also can’t be seen at just any old zoos or parks. Students can learn about the importance of the mangroves for protecting coastal areas and the awesome biodiversity living among them.
Black and White Mangroves thrive in the Everglades and love the mixture of freshwater and saltwater. Beautiful orchids grow among the trees. Your group could spend all day studying our plants and exploring how they adapt to the environment.
