Everglades National Park, covering over 800 square miles, is the largest subtropical wilderness in the U.S., where land and water converge. Exploring via water is essential, as one-third of the park consists of navigable waterways. Visitors can rent various boats from Flamingo Marina or opt for guided tours to venture into the denser areas. Recommended activities include airboat tours offered by multiple companies as well as traditional boat tours through stunning regions like the Ten Thousand Islands and Florida Bay.
"The boating experience here is unlike any other. A vast maze of waterways is composed of slow-moving rivers, marshes and mangrove forests," said Boatmart in a blog post.
To rent your own boat, head to Flamingo Marina where you'll find kayak, canoe, skiff, pontoon boat, and houseboat rentals along with fuel and supplies.
Visitors who aren't interested in navigating a boat or want to explore deeper into the park should consider booking a guided boat tour.
There are three airboat tour companies that operate in the park-Coopertown, Everglades Safari Park, and Gator Park, along with some more traditional boat tours.
