Miccosukee Village

TIME : 2016/2/18 11:31:32

Just across the road from Shark Valley, this ‘village’ is an informative open-air museum that showcases the culture of the Miccosukee via guided tours of traditional homes, a crafts gift store, dance and music performances, an airboat ride into a hammock-cum-village of raised ‘chickee’ (wooden platforms built above the waterline) huts and (natch) gator wrestling. There’s a somewhat desultory on-site restaurant if you get hungry. The art and handmade crafts from the on-site art gallery make good souvenirs.
