I was dying to hold an alligator with no alligator farm in site. Then my friend and I realized there was this attraction hidden in John's Pass in Maderia, Florida. It is a nice little set up to come one on one with a baby gator and learn about them at the same time. The people that run the place... More

I had been traveling to Madeira Beach for almost 2 years and didn't know anything about The Alligator Attraction until I did a google search. If you are looking for entertainment for your child, check out this spot. My son had a good time feeding the alligators and fish. We even held the smaller of the two alligators (okay, I... More

We stopped in here with the kids while we were checking out the shops in John's Pass Village, and we're very happy that we did. Not only is it inexpensive to get into, but the kids loved being able to feed the little alligators and hold a larger one while having their picture taken. The place is very small, and... More

I wasn't sure about this but it was fun. The place isn't very big but they have a lot of animals. For a fee the kids can hold an alligator. They answered all of our questions and the kids had fun.

So much to say about how bigger is NOT better. Great owners and workers. They know there stuff and how to trey animals and families. The kids had a blast And guess what so did the grown-ups. The value is GREAT for a family. Very highly recommended It is upstairs closer to the water side.

The Alligator Attraction was awesome! For a grand total of $28 we got admission to the attraction, got to hold a 4 foot gator and take pics, and the kids got to feed baby gators! My son even got to hold a spiked lizard. The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable! They also had great sense of humor. I would... More

Im sorry but I've always wanted to hold an Alligator. That alone gives it 5 stars. We also got our picture taken holding an Alligator and got to feed some baby Alligators. Just before we left an employee went in with a larger gator and showed us some tricks as well as kissed it. Quite daring, and one thing off... More

Visited Johns Pass on a rainy day in April. At lunch, my husband saw an information packet about The Alligator Attraction. I was going to have him take my 5 year old daughter while I shopped. He convinced me to come along to the attraction. I didn't have high hopes for this adding up to much being in the middle... More

Very affordable and fun to experience. The staff is their to help educate and answer any questions. We did not pay extra to hold the gators but watching other families participate was fun to watch.
