Did you know that Gatorland in under going a $2.5 MILLION dollar expansion (their biggest since 1949)?! The park started the project back in April and plan to open in early fall with the opening of Gator Joe’s Adventure Outpost and Stompin’ Gator Off-Road Adventure.
From the Gatorland website:

Gatorland’s newest attraction

“The new Stompin’ Gator Off-Road Adventure will take guests into a section of the park that has never been seen, running alongside the swamps that feed the headwaters of the everglades. Each of the three monster-style, off-road vehicles seats 12 riders, plus the driver, and is decorated to represent iconic alligators and crocodiles in Gatorland’s rich history.
The new Gator Joe’s Adventure Outpost will be located in front of the Stompin’ Gator Off-Road Adventure, and serve as the park’s home base of reserving and purchasing all separately-ticketed park adventures, including the Stompin’ Gator Off-Road Adventure, Screamin’ Gator Zip Line, Adventure Hour, Gator Night Shine, and Trainer For A Day.
Gatorland is a 100-acre theme park combing Old Florida charm with exciting experiences, exhibits, and entertainment. The park originally opened as a road side attraction in 1949. Today it provides affordably-priced family fun featuring thousands of alligators and crocodiles, breeding marsh with observation tower, free flight aviary, nature walk, petting zoo, educational wildlife programs, award-winning gift shop, Florida’s best train ride, Gator Gully Splash Park, on site restaurant and one-of-a-kind shows including Gator Wrestlin’, Gator Jumparoo, and Up-close Encounters.
Another not to be missed feature is the Screamin’ Gator Zip Line with over 1,200 feet of high flying thrills, five intense zip lines, and a massive 150-foot suspension bridge.”
