Unlike most National Parks, Everglades National Park has three entrances in 3 different cities. Everglades National Park has a total acreage of 1,509,000 acres in Miami Dade County, Monroe County and Collier County. Please note, these entrances are not interconnected. A car is needed at the Everglades because distances are long and there is no public transportation that travels within the park. Each of the three entrances and the interior Flamingo Visitor Center are at least a one-hour drive apart from one another. … There is no other public transportation to the park.✓ nps.gov/ever/planyourvisit/directions.htm · 2026-10-09Everglades National Park: parking
The Main Park Road from the Homestead entrance has narrow shoulders and pulloffs, and individual parking areas at interpretive trails and waysides. … On busy weekends in the winter, the Homestead and Shark Valley entrances can become extremely congested. Long lines can form at the entrance gates, and it can be difficult or impossible to find parking at the visitor centers of these entrances. It is recommended to visit these areas on weekdays, arrive early in the day (before 10 AM), and carpool to the park if possible.✓ nps.gov/ever/planyourvisit/directions.htm · 2026-10-09Established in 1947 as the first national park created for its biodiversity, Everglades National Park protects 1.5 million acres of wetland, forest, and marine habitats and the native plants and animals that call it home.
