Butterfly World

It's a such a peaceful and beautiful place. Incredible beautiful classic music 😂 Good for spend time for adults, for family with kids (any age). The park has a small adorable spots with memorial benches where you can sit and receive a peaceful meditation mood. The adorable bridge on the small lake, all butterflies and birdies would magnetize you. You and especially your kids would like the store in the park. Definitely want come back

If you love butterflies, nature, flowers and walking through myriad pristine environments, then Butterfly World in Coconut Creek is the place for you! Located on the beautiful grounds of Tradewinds Park, you will find plenty of convenient parking. When you enter, have your camera ready as you will be surrounded by a wide variety of fluttering, joyous butterflies flitting from flower to flower! Orchids grow freely in this environment and there is so much to see and learn about Florida flora. As you move through different sections, prepare for “butterfly checkpoints,” as staff members cheerfully ensure our flying friends are not hiding in your hair or on your clothing—no butterfly escapes allowed! There are benches along the various routes where you can just sit, relax, snap photos and enjoy nature’s show all around you. People come from all over the world to view the butterflies living here. We always bring visitors, and everyone is super pleased with the experience. Wear comfortable shoes and ladies, consider bringing a clutch rather than a larger purse which can be a bit cumbersome and a good hiding place for butterflies! Enjoy your visit!

It’s a wonderful experience with nature!
The butterflies are spectacular with so much personality and every size and color you can imagine!
When you step inside it’s like being in a fairy tale only it’s real!
They also have birds and gorgeous passion vines they grow for food for the caterpillars!!
There is a garden center, gift shop, and they have food! Truly a experience you will love!

I came here to propose to my previously girlfriend now wife :). The first thing I really wanted to mention is that Jocelyn was incredibly nice and unknowingly made our experience even more special (she did not know that I had planned to propose).

She was so kind and went the extra mile to make our experience nice and more enjoyable. As we were walking away we had talked about how nice she was and how we appreciated her. So much so that I spoke to her manager about it and also decided to write this review (quite frankly she is probably the main reason we are giving 5 stars).

Jocelyn, if you end up reading this: That moment you had spoke about when you had sat in your car and thought about your life. I think you made the right decision and my wife and I are grateful for your kindness that day that we couldn't stop talking about you and how you had made us really happy. We truly want the best for you and all your future endeavors!

Regarding Butterfly World Itself:
The pricing is a little high in my opinion per ticket ($32.50 + tax per person). However since it's one of those things you want to experience at least once it's a little more acceptable. We expected the place to be a little bigger since it touts the title of being the largest butterfly park in the world but in the main screened off area there are certainly more butterflies than we've ever seen in one place.

Don't go when it rains, apparently they fly around a lot less during that time. We were able to go during a good time and they were flying everywhere so it was a neat sight to see especially for my wife who LOVES butterflies.

Great outdoor exhibits of live butterflies in a tropical environment. Most areas are covered with screens and misters provide a little more relief from the FL heat. Lush gardens with some plant identifications and a small nursery to buy some plants. Four different live exhibits: butterflies, insects, and two bird aviaries. Ample parking, but it costs an extra $2 per vehicle. Online deals for cheaper tickets

After visiting 20 years ago, I brought my wife and young kids (9 and 5) to visit this great place. Even enjoyed it now more than before. When you first enter the area, you're amazed by how many butterflies there are! Birds were also beautiful, especially where you get to feed them while they rest on your arms, shoulders and even head. This is a fun, nature oriented, peaceful place to visit by all ages.

What a great little find, nestled about 1 hour out of Miami on the way up to Orlando, was Butterfly world, I love a secret little find so I had to visit.

It did not disappoint, I got a decent price in and you start by going straight into the butterfly cage, you look around and nothing… then you look closer and on most leaves and branches are the most beautiful butterflies, then as you explore more you see more beautiful and exotic butterflies… they are literally everywhere and then you start seeing colourful birds, I was like a kid in a candy store, I had my SLR with zoom lens on and I felt like I was on a BBC Attenborough show.

Once through the butterfly cage and having made sure there were no tourists on me, trying to escape the cage, I went to the bird cage part, and there were the most beautiful birds on every branch chatting away, some kissing, it was very sweet.

Then on to the kinda museum part, it wasn’t the most impressive collection of insect I’ve seen, but there were definitely a lot, and if you’ve never seen a collection before you will be impressed, then just past this are the live specimens, I wasn’t so happy with this part as you had the most magnificent spiders, mostly tarantulas, and a very impressive bird eating spiders in very small glass boxes, great for the kids, a little sad for the spiders.

Then a quick tour of the plants they use and gift shop and done.

This would be a fantastic day out for kids, and if you like taking pics, there are so many lovely butterflies and birds like I said. Best to go on a slightly colder day if you want pics as the butterflies are slightly more sedated, but I imagine on a hot day, which it wasn’t for me, the activity in the butterfly cage could be quite spectacular.

We enjoyed our visit to Butterfly World. We have been to a few other facilities and this one by far has been the best. The diverse variety of species and the number of butterflies was amazing. They advertise 20,000 on exhibit at any time and while there was no way to count them, it sure felt like that and more! If you enjoy butterflies or tropical birds, I highly recommend giving them a visit.
