Everglades National Park – Flamingo and Royal Palm Area

This was my favorite day in the Everglades. We were at Flamingo campground, which is the southernmost part of the continental US. I started off earlier than the rest of my crew with some sunrise solitude. Another reason I was up early was to be at the ranger station to get ranger-led kayak tour passes (first come first serve). Success! Once I got everyone else up Deano’s Day Camp @ Flamingo and Royal Palm Area began. We went from sunrise straight to sunset and beyond. I kept us busy seeing as much as we could see on our last day in Everglades National Park.
