Description

While it shares its name with the mammoth Sawgrass Mills shopping complex, this park is a separate entity entirely. It offers all kinds of nature-oriented activities, including airboat tours, a replica of an Indian village and a wild animal exhibit. RV camping facilities are available on the grounds. Seventeen-foot airboats carry 25-30 adults. Park admission is $19.50 for adults, $10 for children aged 4-12, and free for toddlers under 4; prices include a 30-minute airboat tour plus unlimited time at all three exhibits.
