Review:

Once upon a time there were thousands of sea turtles in the waters around the Florida Keys – today they are seriously under threat and many rescued turtles end up at the Sea Turtle Hospital for rehabilitation. The public are invited and encouraged to come and see “patients” at the hospital, which offers hourly guided tours of the facility and the chance to feed some of the resident turtles after the tour. Your 90-minute tour includes a presentation on turtles as well as a behind the scenes look at the facilities and the rehabilitation process. Not only is the tour informative, but you will also be pleased to know that your entrance fee contributes to the upkeep and running of this vital charitable facility. Space on the tours is limited and reservations are highly recommended.
