Everglades National Park Camping Shuttles

Everglades National Park requires you to obtain a permit to camp within the Park. The issuance of permits help assure peaceful, intimate remote experiences by limiting the number of groups, the number of guests and the length of stay at any given campsite. Please visit https://www.nps.gov/ever/planyourvisit/wilderness-trip-planner.htm

Often, the close sites are taken resulting in long paddles against winds and tidal currents. Everglades Boat Tours, via its dedicated transport boats, offers kayak, canoe and equipment shuttles. The shuttles allow you access sites that are deeper into the Park without the associated long paddles. You can easily select sites based on availability, sites that are best for the forecasted weather, where the best birding may be or where the fishing is best. As well, we can transport most anything that you can in your vehicle, so you can bring many more amenities on your camping trip...coolers, chairs, screen tents, etc. Kayak, Canoe and Equipment
