Educational with nice walks and different flora and fauna. We walked around and read about the animals and the environment. There are animals in tanks as well as in the wild and there are views of the intracoastal. There are nature preserves up north where we live but this environment is very different. Great place to take the kids.
It educates children through nature trails, interpretive displays, aquariums, an observation tower, seminars, field trips, and other programs. Outdoor marine tanks hold
baby loggerhead turtles, local fish, tide pool inhabitants, and touchables. Visitors can
often observe rare and endangered species—such as manatees, ospreys, sea turtles,
and brown pelicans—in the wilds.
