Getting to Everglades
To reach the Flamingo area, take the Florida Turnpike south until it merges with US-1. Turn right onto Palm Drive and follow the signs to the park. To reach the Shark Valley Visitor Center take exit 25 from the Florida Turnpike to Highway 41, the Tamiami Trail, for 25 miles west.
Major airports in both Miami (MIA) and Fort Lauderdale (FLL) are each about an hour from the park, although Miami is a little closer. Both have extensive airline service and car rental. The Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) is under two hours away and offers a large amount of service as well. We suggest using Expedia when searching for your flights and rental cars. Use the suggested airport code(s) above for the fastest results. The search box defaults to flight searches. To change to a rental car search, simply click the arrows next to the airplane icon in the upper right corner of the box.
