Tip for Other Campers:

The visitor center parking lot at Shark Valley, the north entrance to Everglades NP, is 40 minutes away and has space for 4 RVs/buses; we got there early on a Sunday (lot opens 8:30 am) with our rig (22 ft trailer and pickup). By the time we left in mid-afternoon, lot was full and there was a long line of cars waiting to get in.Other nearby points...
