Hunt the Mysterious Lands of the Unconquered Seminoles. Deep in the unspoiled Big Cypress Swamp, surrounded by the natural beauty of cypress heads, hardwood hammocks, pine islands and wet prairies survive legends of the Seminoles. Unconquered. A people proud and strong.
For hundreds of years, the Seminoles lived and hunted in these unspoiled lands. Now you can too. Hunting packages available through the Big Cypress Hunting Adventures will take you to a place that you've never seen before. You'll venture deep into the transition zone of the Florida Everglades aboard custom built buggies. Survey the horizon. As you will be hunting on a preserve that encompasses over 3,000 acres, you just might glimpse an endangered Florida panther stalking its prey, or possibly a black bear.
Once on board, the excitement begins. Your guide is familiar with the terrain and will take you and your party to the most productive spots on the preserve. The design of our award winning buggies gives hunters an exceptional vantage, perched high above the ground, making travel through the dense foliage and the water of the swamp very easy. Stalk big game while seated comfortably aboard a buggy, on foot, or utilize one of our optimally placed tree stands. You may bring along your rifle, handgun, or muzzle loader, or one can be provided for you. No state hunting license is required, as this is sovereign Seminole land.
Species available from Oct. 1 - April 15 hunting include wild hogs (availble year round): trophy and meat, and indigenous and exotic deer. In season, you'll be delighted with taking nothing smaller than a six point white-tail. If you are interested in wing shot, call up the elusive Osceola turkey.
Once you've bagged your prey, it's time to take a few pictures for the scrap book. Proud hunters with their prizes. You will surely want to remember the good times you've had at the Big Cypress Hunting Adventures.
Skinning, cleaning and quartering is FREE. Cutting, grinding, sausage packing, and freezing is at an additional cost at on site processing plant. Any shipping will be prepaid based on weight and overnight UPS.
As an added convenience, there are modern, accommodations nearly for those wishing to stay overnight. There are so many options for your hunting adventure. You will be amazed how thrilling a hunting adventure in the Everglades can be. It's all waiting for you on the Big Cypress Seminole Reservation...a hunter's paradise!
