A must for young children, feeding the stingray alone is worth the price of admission, there harmless, hands will smell like fish, but thats what they eat. For Adults and children there is also lessons on marine life.Nature walk was just OK. Plus the money goes to a non profit.

Had my 21 ,onto old with us who likes to get down and go. She loved every minute of this place! It's not toying, but it's perfect to spend the day. The touch tank in the shape of a starfish was her favorite! The volunteers who work there are fantastic, patient and kind. There are trails that you could walk... More

We stumbled on this place and enjoyed it. Lots of enthusiastic volunteers, good place to spend your money and support ocean studies.We took a saunter on the network of trails through the mangrove swamps. It was an enjoyable glimpse of the natural Florida, then we headed back to the tourist swamp.

We decided to visit to give the kids a break from the beach. It's a very small scale place, so if you are looking for a big fancy aquarium this isn't for you. Many opportunities for some great educational information. Just a small, community oriented place. Loved the rays, touch tank and watching the shark feeding, it was a blast.... More

Nice little place to visit and cheap. Helpful people guiding you around and not too busy. Great place for a stroll through the mangrove swamp too.

Great little sea life educational center very near the beach in Stuart. This place is a little gem. Has indoor and outdoor activities for kids and adults. The feedings (fish and ray) are highlights. The staff is very knowledgeable. The price is reasonable and worth it.

We got there too late for the ray feeding, but got to see the talk about turtles and fish feeding. We were still able though to go see and touch the rays afterwards. It's a nice place with lots of educational material but you can also just go there and watch the animals. I think this place is especially nice... More

The coastal center contains an indoor "educational" center more geared towards chilidren as well as numerous outdoor exhibits. The sting rays certainly steal the show and kids certainly love feeding them. Overall a wonderful place to bring children and educate them about marine wildlife. I would highly recommend this center to adults as well.

Went there with my two sons (9 and 7) and parents. The facility is very nice. This is an educational visit. The presentations were a bit too advanced for my 7 year old, but there was still things to do to keep his attention. Enjoyed learning about the aquatic life, seeing the sharks in the pond, and touching the stingray.... More
