Couldn't get in to see anything. Poor help at desk shoving food in her mouth while trying to get information will not be coming back.

Amazing tour!! Was a must for my trip to Florida traveled from Fort Lauderdale to Marathon just for the turtle hospital! Was more than I expected, was able to see a new patient being brought in. Will definitely visit again if I get back to Florida from Michigan. Ended up adopting Rebel after my visit, and adopting Montel as a birthday gift for a family member. Well worth the admission cost, would have paid more! Calling ahead to make a reservation is a must!!!

This was a wonderful and informative visit! Learned lots of things we didn't know about sea turtles and their environment! Staff was very knowledgeable. You could tell the staff really love their turtles and the main goal is always to return them to the wild!!!!!
