About this adventure

Walk among more than one million twinkling LED lights illuminating 30 acres of lush subtropical flora at the Florida Botanical Gardens in Largo. The accessible pathways guide families through glowing botanical tunnels, sparkling hibiscus gardens, illuminated palms, and giant laser light projections on the lake. Children delight in spotting illuminated native Florida wildlife figures—such as dolphins, alligators, and flamingos—along the trail, and Santa visits the gardens nightly through December 23. The paths are wide, smooth, and easily navigated with strollers.
