What’s not allowed
-
Pets aren’t allowed. So your furry friends will have to sit this one out.
-
Please don’t touch the animals. It’s for their safety and yours.
-
Feeding them is a no-go since they’re on a carefully managed diet to keep them healthy.
-
Try to keep things calm: no yelling, teasing, or sudden loud noises.
-
Avoid tapping on the glass or banging on enclosures as it can really stress the animals out.
-
Tossing objects into the habitats? Also a big no. It could harm the animals or disturb their space.
-
Smoking and vaping are not allowed anywhere in the Gator Park.
-
Always stay behind fences and barriers, they’re there to keep everyone safe, both visitors and animals alike.
Accessibility
-
Getting around is pretty straightforward. There’s a wheelchair-accessible ramp just behind the gift shop that leads to the airboat area.
-
That said, there are a few steps down to the boat, so if you’re using a wheelchair, you might need a helping hand to get on board.
-
Inside the Gator Park, you’ll find compacted shell and concrete paths, and everything’s on ground level, so it’s easy to roll around and enjoy the exhibits.

Kids under 16 years must have an adult with them at all times while exploring the Gator Park.

You can hand-feed the giraffes at the on-site feeding platform for just $5 per person. You can pay for this experience on the spot.
