Everglades City, Florida Travel Guide

Everglades City

As you can tell from the name, this is Southwest Florida’s gateway to the Everglades and the 10,000 Islands. Located about 30 minutes from Naples and Marco Island, about an hour from Fort Myers and approximately 90 minutes from Fort Lauderdale and Miami, Everglades City is the perfect “base camp“ for your exploration of this marvelous 5,000 square mile wilderness.

Relax and enjoy a guided boat tour of the Everglades, or grab your paddles and go canoeing or kayaking through exotic landscapes like mangrove tunnels. Sportfishing is very popular here, with tarpon and snook thriving in the backcountry of Everglades National Park. You can ride your bike beneath old-growth cypress hammocks. Hike into the prairies, wetlands and sloughs. Bring your binoculars and spy rare orchids, or take a guided birding trip. Or fly over the entire area aboard a pontoon plane. Your “inner adventurer” is sure to wake up and come alive in Everglades City.
