A small place that teaches people about manatees. It has an educational video, coloring station, friendly staff, a gift shop that is inexpensive compared to other places, and a very nice viewing area. We did not see any real manatees but its worth stopping at. Kids will enjoy themselves.

Took the grandkids here but there is not a lot to do. Not a full day experience so just a stop in while enjoying the area would be best.
