Create an itinerary including Alligator Alley
Start your guided adventure with a walk to the elevated viewing platform, where you can see over 450 alligators from hatchlings to mature adults, relaxing, sunbathing, courting and nesting. After a breath taking view, continue your adventure with a nature walk on the elevated boardwalk and see alligators in their natural habitat along with other natural inhabitants such as turtles, ospreys, owls and bull frogs only a couple feet away!

Feed them. Hold them.

Our expert staff members are always happy to chat with you and answer anything you ever wanted to know about gators!

If you’re feeling extra adventurous, be sure you’re here during feeding times. Want to feed them yourself? Grab some alligator chow and we’ll let you be the master! But don’t worry, we won’t just throw you to the gators – we’ll be there to give instruction and supervise, of course.

  • Alligator Alley is a hidden gem, there's not a lot of advertising, no signs out on the highway. But you should make this a part of your vacation to Gulf Shores. Alligator Alley is beautifully...

  • This place is so cool. The feeding show is great and the the owner was super knowledgeable and fun to talk with. He was like an American, southern back-roads Crocodile Hunter, he's the Alligator Rescuers!! The kids loved holding the baby alligator and albino python and feeding the big ones. I mean your right over some really big ancient beast, it is really awesome.
  • This place was a very pleasant surprise. The property was well manicured and a nice walk. Everyone one working there was very friendly and made the experience great. The place is surrounded be farm land but once your there your teleported to swamp in the middle of no where. If possible catch one of the feedings, sure you get to see the creatures eat but the guy doing to feeding had a lot of really interesting information about the gators 🐊 that I had never heard. The swamp was really cool to stroll through, the wife has some arachnophobia but the banana spiders couldn’t scare her away from enjoying the swamp. Met an employee that was working in the swamp answering visitors questions about the gators, extremely knowledgeable man. Really good experience, I’ll bring family and friends when they come to town, great place
