Everglades National Park Boater Education Program

Everglades has developed a free boater education course to orient and educate boaters to the unique features of the park’s marine waters. Our overall goal is to protect marine resources while providing world-class recreational opportunities

At present, the program is available on a voluntary basis and on August 1, 2019 will be mandatory for nearly everyone* operating a powerboat within the marine waters of the park.
