It was sad to see what we have done to the wildlife and Turtles especially. But it was very uplifting to learn how this one organization is helping, rescuing, healing and when possible returning these healthy and sustainable Turtles back into the wild. It was educational for our 8th grade students who later while snorkeling wanted to make sure the turtle we saw was not injured and needed a call to the Turtle hospital. Keep up the great work of care and education. Definitely worth the stop.
This place is amazing! Thankful that these wonderful folks take such tremendous care of these magnificent creatures. Definitely a learning experience.
Absolutely love the Turtle hospital! The staff is very informative and happy to answer any questions you may have. Great for kids and adults. I hope I can apply the knowledge I gained while visiting to help make our oceans and beaches a better place for all species!
We visited for the second time last week and had a great tour and visit with the turtles. They do great work here and it is well worth the time to see for your self.
A must "stop and see" when in the Keys!! Great work they perform everyday, to insure the survival of these species of turtles.
