How to get to the Big Cypress National Preserve Oasis Visitor Center, located in the center of the Preserve:

From the west coast of Florida:

South on I-75 to exit 80 (also Hwy 29) turn right (south). When you reach a blinking light at the intersection of Hwy 41 (Tamiami Trail) turn left (east) and you are in the Preserve. From the intersection of Hwy 29 and Hwy 41 the Oasis Visitor Center is approximately 23 miles east on Hwy 41. There are no gas stations in the Preserve, so if you need gas be sure to get some at the intersection of Hwy 29 and Hwy 41.

From the east coast of Florida:

Exit onto Hwy 41 (Tamiami Trail) going west. When you reach the intersection where the Indian Gambling Casino is located, continue west on Hwy 41. From the gambling casino it is approximately 30 miles to the edge of the Preserve. The Oasis Visitor Center is approximately 38 miles west of the Indian Gambling Casino on Hwy 41. There is gas at the corner where the Indian Gambling Casino is located and also in the Indian Reservation, but none in the Preserve, so if you need gas be sure to get some.
