  I passed by and felt like I should check this place out. I didn't even go to the animal center, I very much enjoyed the beautiful beach! I was all alone on a Wednesday. It was like my own private beach! The sand is so soft. I had an unreal experience. This beach is 100x better than fort Lauderdale or Miami... And I stress again I had it all to myself! Unbelievable.

  Like others, I was just driving by and decided to stop in. Couldn't believe what a little gem this center is. Loved the animals and the birds but the real excitement was the staff who were so patient and willing to explain anything I asked about. They even brought out a small alligator for me to touch. The best part was the beach. There are 43 steps down to it (yes, I counted) but it is well worth it. Right on the intercoastal, hardly anyone there and a super place to go to watch the boats go by. We take our chairs and a lunch and just sit for hours enjoying the sun and water. Great for the kids to just run and play in the warm water but parents - you are responsible - there is no life guard!

  This center has a very nice visitor center. The attendants are very helpful and go our of their way to explain things and point out interesting features within the displays and along the trail. We hiked the trails which were well marked and, using the available trail guide pamphlet, had lots to point out and learn.

  This place tells you about the history of the area in pictures and artifacts. Quite informative and well worth the stop.

  Love to go to this place for a little review of nature.It is free to enter and is very informative.During turtle egg laying season you can go on scheduled night walks to look for turtles. There is a small trail and a nice walk down to the water. It's a lot of steps but great exercise

  I love taking my 4 children here. The staff is so informative and friendly. There are several different animal exhibit's inside, all very nicely made. It is very easy to walk through and explore. The gift shop has lots of nifty and unique treasures. There are several different trails to hike on. They are short and sweet, thus a snap for kids! Some of the trails lead to the river. We always enjoy our visits. We spend about an hour and a half when we go.

  We took our Grandson for the whole inside tour which was fascinatingly delivered by a warm knowledgeable volunteer. Then we walked all the trails and wound up on the shores of the Intracoastal where we sat and watched him play for an hour. Wonderful!!!!!

  We went to the shore at Hobe Sound, Florida last week and I was astounded. There on the Atlantic coastline was a rocky shoreline like you see in Northern California. It was beautiful. The waves coming in shoot right up through the rocks. And right across the road they have a nature center with a natural trail and for the old folks a boardwalk clear back to the Indian River. It's just fantastic. And the ride from the interstate to the beach is just wonderful, a mile of huge trees arching over the road. It looks like a tunnel. Just exit 95 to the East and keep going till you run out of road. Definitely worth the trip.
