MOCCASIN LAKE NATURE PARK

Moccasin Lake Nature Park is a delightful place to spend time. There are trails to walk, a picnic pavillion, and best of all, several raptors on display as they recover and are cared for. We saw and talked to one of the park volunteers who was handling a red-shouldered hawk. An added bonus was a wild peacock who joined us in the picnic area. The peacocks wander around free and seem comfortable around people. Overall, a delightful place!!

This place is awesome all kinds of wildlife everywhere... nice trails shade included..lots of photo opportunity..a great place to explore Florida's landscape for all ages. I love visiting the local parks and this place really delivers... beautiful butterfly garden and Penelope the eagle are a couple my favorite things here. Honestly there are suprises everywhere... highly recommend visiting.

Absolutely beautiful! A serene raptor sanctuary with a turtle pond, butterfly sanctuary, lovely trails through wooded area and fantastic, friendly, informative staff. On Wednesdays the Suncoast Herpetological Society is there with a variety of snakes, lizards, and more.
