Review & FAQ:
Located at one end of the Wilderness Waterway, Everglades City is proud to be known as the Gateway to the 10,000 Islands. From here, paddlers can explore marshes, mangrove forests, and the open waters of the bay, making it one of the best places in Florida to canoe and kayak.
For those not comfortable with venturing out on their own, a wide variety of guided tours are available. Other popular activities in the area include cycling excursions through the old-growth forests, birdwatching, swamp buggy rides, and airboat tours. There are also plenty of opportunities for excellent fishing.
