Bountiful of nature and beauty. . Definitely recommended activity if you are in Largo to see the wildlife and enjoy the Flora and the fauna. . We were able to spot numerous alligators , tortoises, flamingo, gillinule, heron and lots more. We spotted more alligators in this park than any other in Tampa. . They have a decent long boardwalk and also a tower somewhere in the middle . . There is plenty of parking available. . Highly recommended to wear appropriate clothing, even though there is shade of the tree the sun can get into your skin . Also have hydrating liquids. .

Stroller friendly nature trails and park. We saw turtles and an alligator! The trails are beautiful, mostly walking on a board walk. The playground is brand new. It costs 2$ per car to get in, but it’s well worth it!

We loved this park! If we'd had more time, we definitely would have rented a canoe. It's a great wildlife preserve. There's one section closed on the boardwalk right now, and you can't climb the tower (also closed), but everything else was great. Lots of baby gators and birds. All the large gators were hiding when we were here but it was still worth the time and $2 entry fee. If you have the time (you can see a lot in less than an hour), I recommend coming here. We also appreciated the water filling inside the nature center.

If you're looking for a cool and refreshing outdoor experience, this park is a must-visit! The trail is easy to walk and suitable for people of all ages, and the $2 entree fee per car is well worth it for the beautiful scenery and wildlife sightings. During my visit, I was lucky enough to see alligators in their natural habitat. The boardwalks are well-maintained and provide stunning views of the surrounding landscape. I especially enjoyed the observation tower, which offered a panoramic view of the park. There are also several shelters and a playground for families with children. This is a great place to take photos and capture special memories. Overall, I highly recommend this park to anyone looking for a fun and scenic outdoor adventure with friends and family.

Really nice boardwalk hike and inland hike. A bit too short, so we managed to walk the routes twice. Loved the bench stops along the boardwalk route. The observation tower gave a nice view. Come early in the morning for better sights. I've put in a video of the boardwalk and the nature trails. There was gators when I did the walk Remember dogs are allowed, but not on the boardwalk

My son and I love walking the boardwalks and checking out the plentiful wildlife.

I got a recommendation from a local that this would be a great spot to check out if I wanted to see birds and gators. Sadly, no gators but lots of birds! (and other critters). Be warned, there’s a $2 entry fee and they only accept cash (I had to leave to find an ATM) I arrived a few minutes after opening (8:00 AM) and was greeted by a friendly booth attendant. The parking was plentiful and there seemed to be plenty of picnic and recreational areas good for groups. The boardwalk was easy to find (though the original trail I took was flooded so I had to backtrack). I wandered around taking in all of the birds, reptiles, bugs, and other critters hanging out at the edge of the water. Bring a bottle of water and pee before you start the boardwalk. Binoculars and a camera strongly recommended!

Beautiful place for a nature walk/ cycling.. Family friendly.... Look out for 'gators and reptiles.... Early morning and around sunset is the best time if you are a Birder.
