Admission is $20 for adults, with child and military discounting. There's a lot of outdoor walking space around the main lake/lagoon where you can see the nurse sharks and sea turtles amongst the many other fish there. The weather was really nice the day we went, so we took a stroll through the nature trails. They are mostly boardwalk trails with a few covered stops with benches. The main trail is a 1 mile loop but there is also a 1/3 mile loop that is good for kids. The main trail will take you to the Indian River Lagoon for some nice storefront views! The main building has some cool artwork made of reclaimed beach litter that makes you really think about proper waste disposal. There's also a few tanks with cool fish and such to see. The entire center has a few different spaces for bathrooms that are easy to access. I'd recommend coming here for a nice day in the fresh air and sunshine to enjoy the flora and fauna of Florida!

Each leg has something different to see and handle. Then we went inside the building and checked out the tanks and all interactive things. Walked up to 3rd for nice view of the place and back down to watch the feedings. There is talk about stingrays but no food. Next they feed the fish in the huge open air aquarium. Nurse sharks, rays, jacks, and lots more. The feeding was interesting as was the talk after about pollution and algae. Next off the green sea turtles feeding. They were having romaine lettuce. They put colored pole with a shape that each knows. They swim over bump the Pole and get fed. These had boat injuries so they would never be in the wild. Again another talk about them while they are being feed. Good for adults and great for kids. Highly recommended.

This night is called Bouyon night. It's a Haitian establishment that serves Haitian food. Bouyon(…read morebouillon) is a hearty soup that Haitians enjoy. However, they do have other Haitian food as well. It's every 3rd Friday. The place is pretty big and decorated simply and nicely. The large bathroom was clean. There's even a VIP section in which someone was celebrating a bday. The Bouyon was good. Not too salty. But, I have tasted better. The service was good and the servers polite. There was a good crowd. However, the DJ wasn't good. He would stop between songs instead of mixing them one into the other. Or after a really good song he'd play something slow. Many times the crowd expressed their displeasure. Would I go back? Absolutely! I've heard different DJs go there and it's awesome. Next time I'm in town I will try to go back.

I do not hand 5 stars off easily. The Lodge is nice. My Hunt for Feral Hogs was fun. Walker, my…read moreguide asked if I've ever been in a Swamp buggy and I said "nope". Been to Florida several times in the past and never saw an Alligator. On the way to the Hunting area I saw a smaller Gator so you can cross that one off !. We were on Hogs pretty fast. The only thing was the hunt was over within an hour. Fast forward to the lunch. Deep fried Mahi mahi and fries! It was fresh and you could taste that. All in all it was very nice! I would recommend it and so far after hunting several places in Florida this was the best experience. They offer other hunts so go look the website over. I have to give a shout out to my Guide Walker. The youngster worked hard for me and I appreciate it. Mike the cook threw down a good fish fry . Going again this October for more Hogs ! Great place great people great experience
