Reviews
"Always a great place to bring kids. They LOVE being able to see all the fish swimming around. The alligator top it off with them. Great fun and a rare thing to be able to bring the kids and for them to actually have a great time and it is all free."
"We had a good time on this visit. The fish pools were pretty, but I really enjoyed looking over past the pools at the end of the wooden walkway. We found turtles swimming in the water and an alligator chilling."
"Interesting place for a quick stop to see some of the different local fishes and a growing gator. There are only two outside aquariums, one filled with goldfishes and the other with gigantic carpe, bass, catfish, etc. I found the alligator gar super fascinating as it's a fish with it's head shaped like a gator. By the gazebo, there is an enclosed area where you can see a juvenile gator."
"First trip here this Spring. Awesome as always. I love this place. I like looking at all the fish and watching the Gator grow. I also enjoy walking around the property. I didn't get a chance to do it this time but I also like to have lunch there. It's a really a special place."
"Free family fun. Alligators, so many different fish and educational information. A great place for the kids. Restrooms were closed when we went. You can purchase fish food on site."
