Everglades Area Visitor Center’s Grand Opening Was…Grand!

Everglades City

On Saturday, February 1st, the new Everglades Area Visitor Center opened…and it was a wonderful affair!

Even the overcast skies and drizzle of rain couldn’t keep people away. Congressman Mario Diaz Balart, Parks Superintendent Pedro Ramos, and Mayor Howie Grimm were just a few of the people who came out to see the long-awaited center open.

Stop in any time to see us! We have maps, area information and much more to share with our visitors!

We are located at 207 W. Broadway in Everglades City. We are open from 9 am to 4 pm daily.
