The Center is another small location, but you really can't beat the price - only $1! This non-profit is not only educating visitors on the sea-cow, but also on the Indian River Lagoon, where the salt water of the Atlantic Ocean
Inside the Center, there is a central exhibit hall, the gift shop, education center with things for the little ones to play with, and specimen tanks sprinkled throughout. I do recommend a visit to the Center - with stipulations. During the summer, the manatees are generally not around as they are migratory animals
Outside the Center, there are other interesting locations attached to the parking lot. There is the St. Lucie County
While I do recommend visiting the Manatee Observation and Education Center, I do that partially based on the location being more than just the Center. With the other attractions there, as well as direct access to the water, it ends up being a great place. Finally, the Center does have monthly offerings of varying prices, weekly camps for the kids, kayak and boat tours, and party rentals for birthdays and other occasions.
