Water is here. Water is there. Water is everywhere!

Water is Everglades National Park. Celebrating it’s 75th birthday in 2022, Everglades remains one of the most vital and unique of the National Park Service of the United States, and a UNESCO site.. Receiving 60 inches of rainfall a year, (or twice the amount of the “rainy” city of Seattle, Washington,) there is a vast amount of runoff that is filtered through the 1.5 million acres of ecosystems in the park. These ecosystems support abundant flora and fauna species, some found nowhere else. You can find a balance in nature here – land and water, sky life (with one of the biggest bird populations of any national park,) and marine life, (including the rare manatee and American crocodile,) and prey-predator.

The least rainy months to visit are December-April. So, now is a good time to go — not with the flow, but to the flow — of water in Everglade National Park.
