Plan Your Visit
Corkscrew Swamp Sanctuary is open for visitors every day of the year. Access to the boardwalk will be limited during severe weather.
Hours:
- October 1 through April 10: 7 AM to *5:30 PM

*Note: Last admission is one hour before closing time.
All visitors must be off the boardwalk before the closing time unless a special program is being conducted by the Corkscrew staff. No individual is allowed on the boardwalk after dark. This regulation was established for the protection of wading birds that roost or nest near the boardwalk. Any disturbance of these birds at night might result in nest failure.
This regulation applies each month of the year. Vehicles found in the parking area after the closing time may be towed at the owner's expense.
