Dinosaurs Come to Life near Tampa, FL

Where can you find over 200 life-size dinosaurs? If you guessed Central Florida—halfway between Tampa and Orlando, then you guessed right. All dinosaur fans and Florida visitors should consider hopping in a van rental and heading to Dinosaur World.

Open year round, Dinosaur World is a Florida attraction unlike any other. With over 20 acres of dinosaurs and other prehistoric exhibits, everyone will enjoy these up-close encounters with all kinds of dinosaurs. In addition to seeing the life-size dinosaur replicas in the Skeleton Garden, you can also:

  • Enjoy an interactive program with a paleontologist to tour a cave and dig site.
  • Crack a geode and take home a treasure no one has ever seen before!
  • Mine for dinosaur gems.
  • Do your own excavating in the bone yard.

Dinosaur World is open every day from about 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Compared to many of the other theme parks in Central Florida, this dinosaur attraction is very affordable for families on a budget. In fact, a family of four can get admission into the park for just $65 plus tax—leaving you plenty of other vacation funds to explore what else Tampa has to offer.
