The boat ride with Captain Phil and the reserve nature guide is the best way to see America’s first Nature Preserve. The native brown pelicans are abundant after being nearly wiped out by DDT. We saw nesting brown pelicans, migrating white pelicans, many types of herons, egrets, cormorants and anhingas.

We had a great visit here with our 3.5yo & 2yo. The trails and boardwalk provide an easy way for little ones to explore the rich mangrove ecosystem. There are many thoughtful hands-on learning opportunities for little ones across the campus. The indoor learning center features large aquariums and a touch pool. There also are blocks, puzzles, interactive murals and storybooks available to help little ones learn. Our 2yo fell in love with the "petable" manatee! Highly recommend this for everyone!
