28

Marker 28 is a waypoint on a numbered route through the Everglades, one of Florida's most treasured natural areas and a refuge for dozens of threatened and endangered species. The numbered system along these routes functions like a trail map, guiding visitors deeper into the ecosystem safely. Near stops in this range of the route, the water can be so clear and shallow that fish are visible darting beneath the surface. The diversity of aquatic life here — largemouth bass, gar, snook, and many others — draws anglers and nature watchers alike throughout the year.
