Description
Step into a vibrant world of nature at Flamingo Gardens, a 60-acre sanctuary just outside Fort Lauderdale. Your admission ticket opens the gates to one of South Florida’s oldest botanical gardens, home to over 3,000 species of rare, exotic, and native plants. Stroll shaded trails beneath towering champion trees—some of the largest in Florida—and discover themed gardens filled with orchids, bromeliads, and cycads. The peaceful setting is alive with the colors and scents of tropical and subtropical blooms year-round.
Beyond the gardens, explore the Everglades Wildlife Sanctuary, where you’ll meet a fascinating array of rescued native animals. Watch alligators bask in the sun, spot playful otters, and observe majestic panthers, black bears, and bobcats in spacious habitats. The sanctuary is also famous for its flamboyant flocks of flamingos and peacocks, offering memorable photo opportunities. Don’t miss the daily wildlife presentations, where expert handlers introduce you to birds of prey and reptiles, sharing insights into Florida’s unique ecosystems.
Hop aboard the narrated tram tour to see the highlights of the gardens and learn about the region’s five distinct ecosystems, from hardwood hammocks to wetlands. Whether you’re a plant enthusiast, animal lover, or simply seeking a tranquil escape, Flamingo Gardens invites you to connect with Florida’s wild side. Your visit ends at the central gardens, leaving you perfectly placed to relax or continue exploring at your own pace.
