Butterfly Walk at MacDill 48

Join us for a guided butterfly walk through one of Tampa’s newest and most ecologically diverse parks! We’ll meet at the entrance to the park at 9:00 AM, and the walk will last approximately 2 hours.

MacDill 48 Park, which opened in November 2024, features a mile-long trail winding through beautiful natural wetlands and showcases a wide variety of Florida native plants and butterflies.

This 48-acre hidden gem includes:

• Oak hammocks
• Pine flatwoods
• Shrub swamps
• Wild citrus groves
• Natural bayhead forest — home to a giant magnolia tree

Whether you're a seasoned naturalist or just looking to enjoy a peaceful morning in nature, this walk is a fantastic opportunity to experience multiple Florida ecosystems all in one place.

Bring water, sun protection, and your curiosity!
