Public Sea Turtle Release

Education Programs

GUIDED EDUCATIONAL EXPERIENCE

Guests are invited to take a guided educational tour of the hospital facilities and the sea turtle rehabilitation area. You have to be a part of one of our programs in order to view our turtles. This educational experience lasts approximately 70-90 minutes and provides a presentation on sea turtles as well as a behind the scenes look at the hospital facilities and rehabilitation area.  At the end of each program guests are invited to feed the permanent resident sea turtles.

Because we are a working hospital, you must be part of one of our guided educational programs in order to visit with our turtles. Reservations are highly recommended.
