Great place for the whole family to visit! Everyone was very nice and helpful! My kids loved holding the baby alligator and the snake and feeding the tortoises:) the building it's three floors and I loved that they have an elevator which made it easier for me with my baby's stroller! and it's great for handicapped people also! Great atmosphere, awesome employees, everything in the gift shop was so cute! I definitely recommend this place:)

This is one of my favorite places on the island to see water birds, alligators, butterflies and wetland scenery. I’m not a birder but I get excited about the birds here. You never know what you’ll see. Worth spending a couple of hours here.
