You won’t only meet alligators at the farm, however. You’ll have the opportunity to befriend and see a menagerie of creatures from around the globe. Discover what this park has to offer you!

 St. Augustine Alligator Farm Exhibits


Before you make plans to visit the park, you may want to know what exactly you’ll see when you arrive here. We’ve got a list of some of the most popular attractions on offer.


Land of Crocodiles

The most obvious exhibit has to be the crocodile and alligator section. This park doesn’t just take care of alligators that live in Florida natively. In fact, you’ll have the chance to see a Nile Crocodile from across the pond in Africa, small Chinese alligators, and even rare albino gators.


The largest beast in the park is named Maximo, a hefty 1250 pound, 15 foot long crocodile. You’ll be able to check out this monster from the safety of the underwater viewing window.


In addition to the live exhibits, you’ll also see exhibits that are dedicated to improving the lives of these creatures, and commemorating them. Explore the many paintings of the now-deceased gator Gomek, who was a huge part of the park’s history. You may learn about the conservation efforts involved in helping harmed reptiles and maintaining their exhibit homes.

History

The St. Augustine Alligator Farm has a surprisingly rich history that goes back to the 19th century. Founded by George Reddington and Felix Fire in 1893, this farm grew as a tourist attraction through the 1900s, with many tragedies and hardships along the way.
