Several visitors mentioned the $20 tour as particularly worthwhile, feeling more like a donation that comes with fascinating behind-the-scenes information about the current patients and conservation efforts. The family-friendly facility offers an educational experience that genuinely captivates all ages. Kids especially love seeing the baby turtles up close, and the informative signage and presentations help everyone learn something new. The gift shop stocks quality items from soft shirts to bucket hats and bracelets, and visitors appreciate that purchases support the center's mission. One reviewer noted some construction-related paint fumes during their visit, but overall the facility maintains a welcoming atmosphere. Many locals consider it a favorite repeat destination that keeps improving over the years.
Do you want to see baby turtles? Because they have baby turtles! And also adult turtles that are being rehabilitated and they’re all so amazing. The staff is super knowledgeable and told me awesome turtle facts. Totally picked up a super soft shirt and an awesome bucket hat and a cute bracelet. They run on donations so entry is free but a couple of bucks dropped in the box is appreciated.
