Gatorama is an alligator farm and visitor attraction in Palmdale, Florida, USA. Alligators and crocodiles are raised on the farm for meat and skins.[1] Gatorama is one of Florida's oldest roadside attractions.[2][3][4] Only six alligator farms are open to the public as attractions.[5]

Cecil Clemons opened the farm in 1957.[6][5][7] The alligators were captured locally in the 1960s.[7] Wild crocodiles were caught in Jamaica in 1967-1968.[7]

Allen and Patty Register acquired the property in 2006.[6][8]
