From Our Visitors

This beachfront non profit is known for saving sea turtles and environmental education,but they also thoughtfully share messages of conservation throughout the facility. Parking and entry are free. There's a short walk from the parking area to the building. They do have tours ($10 I believe) a couple times a day, but everyone is welcome to just walk through on their own. I have to say their gift shop is awesome. They have some branded items, but there are so many things there that are really unique and nature-based gifts and souvenirs. Lots of jewelry, clothing, handmade art and handbags. The sea turtle "patients" who are being treated (hit by boats, can't dive for food, some have a virus) are in tanks until they are healthy enough to be released. If you follow the facility's media, you can get lucky enough to attend one of the turtle releases, right out their back door into the ocean! There's several other fish tanks around the facility too. Even a shark! Oh this visit, they also had green sea turtles hatchlings (babies). When those are old enough, they'll be sent out to the ocean. They have programs for kids too.

They had about 6 sea turtles in tanks on display, and many neat facts about sea turtles of the area. The volunteers were very friendly and would come engage us in discussion. It was a very pleasant and inviting atmosphere. I wish my kids were with me, it’s very educational and fun for all ages.

Fun and educational! Booked the guided tour very informative was able to learn alot more about what they do and of course the lovely seaturtles. Went on a Saturday, One thing to know is the parking. Very difficult to get a spot. Had to park across the street.

Great place to see and learn about this great resource. They accept injured turtles and rehab them til they are released back into the ocean. Donations are voluntary. Turtles range from hatchlings to adults and many have names. They are staffed by volunteers who care and administer treatments for each turtle.

We spent hours then popped to Hurricane’s for lunch and returned til closing! My elementary school aged kids LOVED it. Super easy to navigate. Amazing volunteers. Lots of guests during holiday but didn’t feel stressful. Easy to pop over to the beach but we didnt swim due to so many manowars washed up. Lovely park & picnic space out the back.

We just love it there -and seeing the turtles get better and released warms my heart -realizing that there were only a few makes the visit so special knowing that they are getting better and released back The staff are so friendly and informative-we love learning about the journeys of each little guy

i have nothing against loggerhead but please get a new park ranger because he almost ran me off the road for a reason i’m still trying to figure out. really disappointed as i’ve lived here my whole life and not had issues until this bald headed ranger

Very nice place to visit, free but takes donations and that is a very good deal to me. Lots to learn, even without a guide, the art piece and game inside is very fun for kids. There is lots of animals to see and the employees are all happy to answer questions about them ! Highly recommend for locals and tourists.

We wanted to do something fun, outdoors and nearby my house! Parking was full but we got lucky with last spot under a tree, so we knew the day was going to be great! Made it in time for the tour, which was informational, entertaining and most of all enjoyable for all ages! We had some kids in the group and Roz made sure to make an interactive experience for all. She knew everything and anything about the marinelife and was able to answer all questions and tell us when to get a good shot of the turtles. She shared the stories about why the turtles were there and what their life has been like since being, rescued. It was touching and heartfelt to hear how this organzation got started and continues to thrive! Ready to answer questions! Outgoing and knowledgable about all things Marinelife Zealous on her tour The girls in the gift shop were helpful, friendly, and patient with our indecisive possible purchases! We loved everything about the experience and we will be back soooon! I have already told all my friends and family.

Everyone who works/volunteers here is very informative. This is a great place to go if you are interested in seeing how a conservation center operates! Also recommend checking out the gift shop, they have plenty of options to pick from.

We definitely recommend going to see the turtles after the construction is completed and the Marinelife Center has re-opened the complete viewing area. The wonderful gift shop is open now, but there are only five or six viewing tanks. The new construction should be completed by January 2022.

Located near Juno Beach. A very cool spot with free entrance and parking (they take donations) and a plethora of aquatic life inside. There's sea turtle rehab tanks, a few inside and outside fish tanks with an array of saltwater fish from pufferfish to sharks. There's a decent sized group of staff working the shop and explaining and educating visitors on the turtles there. There's also a gift shop and restrooms available as well. Good spot to take the family if you're in town and spend 30 minutes!
