Ernest F. Coe Visitor Center

Love visiting Ernest F. Coe visitor center. Staff is always friendly and extremely knowledgeable. The ranger always takes the time to talk with my very curious and talkative nephew. The Gift shop has something for everyone. The lady that works the gift shop always has a welcoming smile and is very nice and helpful. Very educational, guided tours with rangers are also available at specific times.

Welcome to the Everglades. The visitor center is an important stop to get information about Everglades National Park. There are exhibits to explain the history, importance, and challenges for the Everglades. Park Rangers are helpful and very knowledgeable. Ask about the Jr Ranger program for kids. Gift shop, restrooms, and water bottle filling site.

I had so much fun here. I wish I had a longer day or longer days so I could spend more time in this part of the Everglades. I had fun walking through the Visitor Center. I wanted to go to the park and left sooner than I had wished. I DO recommend stopping at the Visitor Center first to learn the history of the park and more about the everglades before heading further in.

Very glad to finally take my son inside now that there’s no mask rule! Really well done museum area that’s fun for all ages. Love the Artist in Residence section. Friendly staff. Bookstore lacks in comparison to other NPS sites. Clean restrooms. Nice place to get water bottles refilled. Don’t forget to stamp your passport book! Check out our video on my channel on YouTube (Hammocks to Coasters).

This is a good center to visit. It is located a few minutes away from the entrance of the park. You can get information and a map. This park is big. A map is a good idea. The park also has activities you can do like guided tours, canoes, and trails. The staff is friendly and can guide on things to do.
Behind this center, there is this open area that overlooks water. It is a nice, peaceful, relaxing area.
Is a beautiful center. It has many nice things to see inside. Is a nice place to learn more about what is inside this beautiful park.
