We loved the tour. Excellent information and friendly fun tour guide. She definitely increased our knowledge of sea turtles, their injuries and rescues. Seeing all the sea turtles up close was great.

My husband and I visited in Feb 2016. It was such an amazing experience. We spent so much money in the gift shop, but since most of it goes to take care of the turtles - I didn't care one bit. We also got to see a turtle be released the day after we visited the hospital. Also an amazing experience. Please go here and support the work they do!

This place is absolutely amazing! Not only are the turtles adorable, but they are very well taken care of. My guided visit through the hospital was fantastic and our guide was incredible! I can't wait to hopefully visit again one day.

I really loved this facility such an inspiring insightful trip, staff are all dedicated and knowledgeable. We tried to visit on our way to Key west but sadly it was fully booked up so we booked to visit on our return so glad we did,you need to book in advance. Good luck to all the recovering turtles especially the rescued little hatchling�
