We go here every year on vacation for our picture with a gator. We love seeing all the gators in the water and in the tanks, especially the babies. The show is very informative, but wish they would show feeding them or something. We only go in the Winter though, so maybe they do have n the Summer when the gators are more active.

YO!!! If you love gators, this is a fun place to check out. The do educational talks throughout the day, and they offer to have your picture taken holding one of the babies! It'll cost you of course, but it's well worth it. We got drinks upstairs after I held a gator named Willie, and they were delicious!

What an awesome little place! Food was great and the alligator park was FREE!! And so much fun, did a little scavenger hunt and learned some new things about gators. Thank you Chris for taking so much time and answering all of our questions and letting us pet Julius❤️

I loved our VIP experience this morning with Chris! We learned a lot about alligators and had the fun of feeding them, both the babies and Salty who is 6 years old. Holding and petting one was fabulous as well. We came in December and were the only people on the tour. I have a new appreciation for going to places in the office season. Chris,, our guide, was fantastic. He has a passion for these animals and was great at showing and was wonderful at answering all our questions. Thank you Chris!0

We had a great time! $5.00 you can buy 4 or 5 pieces of food to feed the alligators with a bamboo pole and string(smaller children need a parent to hold the pole with them and thier is a bench for them to stand on). We went on a Tuesday around 4 PM to eat at and see the show at 6 PM. I do recommend getting there before your scheduled activities/show to take in the sites and look at the different alligators. I paid $25.00 for my children to hold a baby alligator, take a picture, digital copy, and a really nice frame. The picture and experience were well worth it. We decided to go kinda last minute, but they do offer tours. I would have liked to do this, but they were sold out. All in all, well worth it. When we were leaving around 7 PM, I noticed a large wait for the restaurant, and the gift shop that was empty before was now packed. Discounts for Gator Beach on Groupon may still be available.
