    We walked Anhinga and Gumbo LImbo trails, but there wasn't much at the visitor center. Also the vultures here attack the rubber and plastic on cars.

    Rangers were very friendly and helpful. They turned on the movie for us and recommended the guided tour to the missile site. Must visit for this national park!

    Did the Wet walk from here. An unique experience well worth doing. Be prepared to get wet up to your thighs!! A little disappointed that we didn't learn more about the ecosystem and biodiversity but overall very glad we did it.
