They thought of everything here! There are solar phone chargers, electric car chargers, local art work, a native flower garden maintained by volunteers for butterflies, and the gift shop is filled with awesome stuff unlike tourist shops everywhere else. The women who run this place should be running the state of Florida! Very impressive

Great staff, full of interesting facts. Only $1 to enter! Some in our group were done in 5 minutes, others wandered for 45 minutes. Didn’t see any manatees but we were there on a hot hot day at the hottest time, probably would’ve had better luck in the a.m.
