- Shark Valley is your northern gateway to explore sawgrass prairies, tree islands and wildlife in Everglades National Park. Watch this video to get a new perspective on the 'River of Grass'! Shark Valley is located on the Tamiami Trail (Highway 41), about 24 miles west of the Florida Turnpike.
The passion of the NPS Rangers for what they do is astounding. Reminds me of many of the teachers I've met over the years... not paid or appreciated nearly enough, yet they continue doing what they love to the benefit of us all.
One of the best places of Florida.
Really?
If y’all want a great experience in the Everglades get on one of the damn fan boats and you go see almost everything it’s amazing.
That"s dang right
And also opening background music is so attractive
Laurie, you have a great job.
Can't wait to visit in Jan 2015
Are you still alive?
I also like to visit.
tell those drivers not to be so rude. last time I was there the guy almost ran one off the road . he got upset cause the guy on the bike was going slow just enjoying the view
Thank you!!! So very beautiful!!! I have been there, 3 times, walked the path, rode my bike, and walked up the observation tower! Such a treat to be able to experience this! Thank you for this, and a great video here on YT! Big❤🌞
Let me know when your going back
@@camilliemcintosh743 👋Hi Camillie McIntosh. Thank you!😀🚴♀️🌿🌱🐢🌺🦋🐊 Alright! It's been a year or two since I've been there! May visit when it's cooler and drier season, less mosquitos. It definitely is beautiful there!!!
I'm sorry I don't mean to be misleading I happened to be looking or my mother's phone and sent you a message because I have made up in my mind but I was going to the Everglades I just don't know what part I want to visit and when's the best time of year to go. I guess when mosquitoes are less
@@camilliemcintosh743 No worries! It's all good! Summer is very hot and rainy. I think when we went it was in March. The cooler, drier months, work best...🙏😊👍💖
What animals did you see?
My favorite park!
Do beautiful I felt .
I went on a field trip to Shark Valley when I was in 7th grade in November 2016
Thank you for the video :) It was really nice.
good for you
@@Nonexistent37 olá, tudo bem?
I biked the entire loop in August 2011. Plus climbed to the top of the tower. A must visit location. But always be careful. The Everglades is a very dangerous place
Charles Rinehart I'm probably going there for a field trip ! I'm scared but excited =)
Rose: Just stay on the pavement. Don't wander off of it. Snakes could be in the grass. Watch videos to get a feel for the place. You'll be OK.
Made me cry
Nice video tour!
Nice video. Shark Valley is really a great place to see the local wildlife. The bike tour to the observation tower was really fantastic. :-)
Going to Florida tomorrow! I will go to the Everglades on Sunday
Very nice expression ,I ❤ it dear . so nice , so beautiful .
the best thing the govt is involved in.... hats off to the efforts of the crew working there. w/ all the popul increase now in fla, its more important then ever to insure and protect this envir.
Thank you for the info!
Cool place. SERIOUSLY though bug spray is your best friend. Honestly I'd never go back unless it's Dec or Jan.
There was a very popular nesting owl just inside the entrance.
Really cool place.
im might go there this weekend. cant wait. :)
Do there be sharks in em valley?
Because of confusion leading to the misleading of the public. Shark Valley has recently changed it's name to Pepes' Place.
Nice video. I biked here in August 2011. Very nice place. However I can't believe the U.S. federal government has let the observation tower and rest rooms get so bad. They can't afford to hire someone to use bleach and a pressure washer?
Note the road and bike path that is there is not used very much. There is no reason to build another bike path for 75 miles over nature, and Everglades. This video shows that there are places you can bike in the Everglades, and they are not used to much to date. Stop paving over paradise, and use what we have. Stop ROGG!

Thank you for being a Christian God Bless y'all

she's really convincing herself she likes to work there lol....
That’s a man?
I'm disappointed with this place, the jacked up the prices horribly and they are going to do it again. and there is no maintenance done to justify the prices, don't bother renting a bike because you will get some rigged up piece of junk + $35 to enter.. not worth the 600 mosquito bites and waterless bathrooms that also happen to not have light. you will probably regret it. I use to be a frequent visitor but I will be looking for other places to ride
Take heart. Try to think of The Everglades as a cross between a once-primitive, pristine wilderness-- and a site that provides the gift of accessibility and observation for humans-- an insider's look into a something worlds apart from our whims and luxuries. Moreover, if "maintenance" is what you're after, focus on a cow gator's nest -- a marvel in engineering, construction, security and maintenance that shelters gator eggs and hatchlings. If it's a designer bicycle you want, you're always welcome to purchase, transport and mount your own. Barring that extravagance, you can WALK the trails (when not running like hell from that mother gator) -- or tour Shark Valley via tram (Warning: Trams NOT equipped with designer cocktail bars). If it's the legendary Everglades Mosquito that plagues you-- well, cannot fathom why you would be the ONE person in every "600" who'd be taken by surprise when swarmed by these INFAMOUS critters. BTW: No mosquito problems in winter, during Dry Season--which is THE season for touring The Everglades. As for the absence of water & light in bathrooms: Same problems in Times Square, annually, on New Year's Eve (aside from which, Shark Valley's fish, turtles, gators and wading birds would beg to differ re: those so-called "waterless" bathrooms); and to suggest that you can't find your way around your own 'anatomy' in dark places is just... well... tragic. Finally, yes-- there ARE alternatives to biking in The Everglades-- one option being the Tour de France; and the other, via a series of very tight, calculated, climate-controlled circles around Trump's Oval Office. SPOILER ALERT: BYO Caviar, friends.

Funny shit🤣🤣
That dude should come to Minnesota in the summer, he'd freak of the mosquitoes , it's our State Bird🤣🤣🤣
@@dianesalino4457 Well said!😊✌🐊😍
stalking ppl XD
They're ruining the glades with all these tourist attractions
where do those fucking Democrats get the money from to place their retarded adds before each video on youtube???
I can't tell if the first park rangers is a really effeminate man or really manly woman?
SERIOUSLY, Jamie ??? Nice video of an astoundingly-beautiful place. Amazing variety of flora and fauna -- and an insider's view to an Everglades that is now merely a tragic, bittersweet tribute to all it once was -- a pristine, flourishing, bountiful river system -- now reduced to one of the most corrupted, compromised regions on the planet. I oughta' know. I lived and worked there, guiding ecotours. No easy task, to wax on about the beauty that met the eye-- while haunted, simultaneously, by the underlying truth re: the struggle for survival in what is now a Death Row for wildlife inhabitants. The Everglades has been polluted by the Big Sugar industry and its sycophant profiteer loyalists-- parched, as it's water supply is diverted and depleted to provide fresh water for overdeveloped populated regions-- and, as a result, has long-suffered the enormous loss of support and sustenance for native wildlife. All this, Jamie -- and what YOU come away with is the question of whether the "first park ranger" is a man or a woman ?????Should you ever come to unravel the mystery of those "Dick And Jane" children's stories, make your next complex endeavor a trip to The Everglades. Pay a visit to the Miccosukee Indian villages that surround Shark Valley. Ask any tribal native which question matters more -- i.e., Is it the question of when, why & how The Miccosukee// Seminole people were robbed of home, culture, and a life-sustaining river that died by the arrogant, greedy, corrupt hands (descendants) of America's FIRST Illegal Immigrants??? -- Or rather, is it the question of whether the ranger featured in the video was male or female in gender????? Okay-- so yeah, this post seems like an angry, endless, Blowhard, Purple Prose answer to a short, simple, "innocent" question; but it's the kind of thinking (or lack thereof) BEHIND that question that's got us all so screwed up-- to the extent that we're more exited about the latest pulse-reading tech toys than we are terrified about losing our BLOOD-driven collective pulse to the inevitable, disastrous effects of climate change... … … and this, perhaps, is how the mice, the "meek" and The Miccosukee shall inherit the earth, after all. BTW, Darwin-- Your first clue re: the ranger's gender was right there up front, when SHE introduced HERself by name -- i.e., "LAURIE." "Laurie" is feminine-- whereas, "LARRY" would be masculine. Both are to be distinguished from the "LORI"keet (a type of parrot) -- and thereafter, distinguished again from the legendary comedy team known as "LAUREL & Hardy." There you have it. Feeling better, now? Sincerely, "VAL." [ Sorry. You'll just have to figure that "Val" thing out on your own ]
A woman that's needs to transition to Male.
@@dianesalino4457 Hello Diane, Regarding Laurie, so nice to see someone so passionate about their work. Secondly, the degredation of the ecosystem that you have pointed out made me wish that I could have seen it a hundred years ago. Have a nice day!
jamie s this is an educational video and you’re wondering if she’s a manly woman or an affeminate man? Gosh you sound very ignorant.
jamie troll - this video is about the Florida Everglades. Not your 25 I.Q.
