Sawgrass Recreation Park, Weston

About Sawgrass Recreation Park

Sawgrass Recreation Park in Weston offers airboat tours through the Florida Everglades combined with an animal sanctuary. Visitors ride airboats that depart every 20 to 30 minutes, traveling through the subtropical wetland to observe wildlife in their natural habitat. The park features a reptile exhibit where guests can see rescued and adopted reptiles and mammals in new habitats designed for their care. The facility also offers private airboat adventures at sunrise and nighttime excursions called the Red Eye Exclusive Nighttime Airboat Adventure. General admission includes both the airboat tour and access to animal exhibits. The park operates with boats leaving regularly throughout the day, and animal exhibits close when the final boat boards. Reservations are required as tours frequently sell out. Tickets are sold online through the park's website. The Sawgrass family, which has owned the park since 2005, focuses on education about Everglades conservation and wildlife preservation.
