Sun Am Bike Ride in Shark Valley followed by Lunch

Join us for the 15-mile bike loop in Shark Valley, in Everglades National Park, amongst the alligators.

"Located 30 miles west of Miami off the Tamiami Trail (U.S. Highway 41), Shark Valley is in the very heart of the Everglades freshwater. Halfway around the loop is a 70-foot high observation tower providing a panoramic view of the sawgrass marsh much as it appeared to the natives over 300 years ago. "

There, we will bike on the paved trail looking for gators and other wildlife and stop along the way for photos. When we get to the end, we will walk up the spiral tower to the top to view the landscape and to take more photos. There you should see lots of wildlife down below.
