Miccosukee Indian Village and Airboat Rides
Learn about the history and traditional culture of the Miccosukee Tribe at the Miccosukee Indian Village on the edge of the Everglades. The village includes a living history museum, gift shop and alligator demonstrations.
At the Indian Village Museum, you can learn about the tribe’s rich and creative culture in an authentic setting. Here you’ll find tribal members demonstrating traditional skills such as doll making, beadwork, patchwork and basket weaving. The museum showcases artwork, tribal artifacts, photography and the government documents that granted the Miccosukee sovereignty in 1962. The exhibits also highlight the relationship between the Miccosukee and the Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians. Exhibits include clothing, paintings and cooking utensils, and you can learn about the tribe’s traditional way of life in a documentary film.
