Seminole Okalee Indian Village

The Seminole Okalee Indian Village is an exciting attraction located in Hollywood, Florida. Managed by the Seminole native tribe, sitting in the heart of their reservation, the village is a cultural and artistic hub.

The village is very traditional and beautiful. Many events are hosted by the village, not just for tribe members. Weddings, reunions, company picnics and other events are regular occurrences within the village, especially in the spring and summer.

Combined with the hospitality and friendliness of the village people, visitors can explore the numerous shops for handmade and very unique souvenirs. Options include arts and crafts, jewellery, dolls, baskets, woodwork and clothes.

Every Saturday at about 8pm, the village hosts a wildlife evening show. Featured animals are live and kept at safe distances by expert handlers. Animals include crocodiles, black bears, river otters, Macaws, snakes, birds of prey, panthers and even alligators who wrestle. In fact, the wrestling is the only deep water variety of its kind in the world.

Specialized demonstrations throughout the village show traditional native life. Doll making, wood working and cooking are amongst the open-air, live displays.

Tours are provided daily, from Wednesdays to Sundays, from 10am until 5pm. The Seminole Okalee Indian Village gift shop provides needed souvenirs, snacks and cooling drinks.
