Gumbo Limbo is such a beautiful nature center. I have two kids (2 & 4) and they love it here. Beautiful sightings of butterflies 🦋, turtles 🐢, lots of fish 🐠, and sting ray too!!! There is a variety of things to see here. I believe it’s free access, but they do accept donations. This is a great activity whether it’s summer time, after school or something to do on the weekend with family. I love that it is stroller friendly, a huge plus! Bring your sunscreen and enjoy nature’s beauty!

100% recommended! Perfect place to go and have a nice time with the kids. My kids ages 9 and 5 really enjoyed it. The fishes are appreciated very well and they look super happy. Interesting information displayed everywhere. The people who work and the volunteers are very friendly and they are always ready to answer the children's questions. We will come back every time we visit Florida. Thanks for such a good job!

The Gumbo Limbo Nature Center is a fun place to take the family. This place should get an extra star for the good they do in saving Sea Turtles. Highly educational in the world of the ocean especially with Sea Turtle preservation, this place is one not to miss. I enjoyed the feeding of the fish and turtles in the two large deep aquariums and the two large shallow tanks. The facilities are very nice and the nature trail is something to enjoy. I like the education on Turtle lighting and found out that there are 7 types of Sea Turtles and the Florida waters are home to 6 of them. Bet you didn’t know that. If so, you listened better than me in oceanography class. The gift shop is small, but has all the typical Florida stuff and the full size turtle statues out front are fun for a photo opportunity and the kids love to play on them. I will be back...

This place is simply amazing. A turtle rescue that does so much more and educate people on the well being of Florida Coast marine life. They ask for donations as entry fee so be generous, it is for a good cause 🐠🦈🐢🌊🤩🤩

Wonderful place to visit for a walk in nature. There is a boardwalk, butterfly garden, marine life viewing areas, and the sea turtle rehab center, as well as a beautiful gift shop. And the most amazing thing is - it's free! Great for all ages.

Great place to visit with kids, to learn about sea life and have fun for a couple of hours. The boardwalk is a great experience to get into the natural Floridian vegetation (don't know if you can call it a forest). The fish tanks are great because they have big windows where kids can enjoy the experience. I recommend to visit just before midday, because the feed the fishes at 12:30. The Florida Atlantic University have a lab there, where you can learn about the life circle of sea turtles. There is also a butterfly garden with a path where kids can run around (there are some mosquitos so be aware).

Another great place to visit by the beach! For the kiddos and teens and adults! All about sea turtle conservation!! See all the Turtles being cared for and those that could not be returned to the wild! Also a Butterfly Garden and boardwalk nature trail. Free admission, accept donations. Gift shop on site.

Associates are very nice and friendly! The park is such an amazing Clean, organized and well-maintained area. The maps are available around the park. definitely recommend visiting!

This was our 3rd visit here. The place is so beautiful! There’s so much nature and wildlife to see. We went early and were treated with several banana spiders, orb Weavers, crabs,woodpecker and a raccoon on the trail. The nature center itself is so well kept, beautiful sea life to enjoy. The staff are incredibly nice and helpful. We learn so much every time.

This place was really neat. It's free which is very cool. You can donate money if you would like. They have about 4 big aquariums. What was also cool, they had people next to the different viewing areas to explain different types of fish or how the water is fed into the tank, etc. That was educational which we appreciated. Also the butterfly garden was great to explore and as you follow a trail past the garden you are led to a small beach or inlet where we saw a manatee. Overall we had a great visit.

What an amazing experience. The work this organization does to protection Turtle 🐢 is so important to the protection of these animals. You will fall in love with turtle's after touring the center. Make sure you stop by the gift shop. 100% of the store proceeds go to benefit the center. From Postcards to posters, food to fashion, toys to totes, there is something for everyone and it's all eco friendly. Come visit and make a difference in the world.

This was a great experience. The parking lot isn’t huge, so depending on how busy it is, it can be a little tricky with parking. It’s free to get in, but they have a box and a gift shop to collect donations so they can operate. Great opportunity for kids and animal lovers. They rehab turtles from the area. Too cool. The staff were polite and knowledgeable. Just be sure to check their hours before showing up. Some parts may close earlier in the day depending on the day.

Was in Boca for a day and a half and was looking to do something outdoorsy with my significant other. This spot was perfect for that. Doesn’t cost anything to enter but they expect you to pay at least $5 per person to keep their business open. They are open for a good cause and rehabbing turtles is one of their main specialities. If you got a few hrs to kill, this is a cool spot to go with someone of ANY AGE. I thought their fish tanks were pretty fascinating.

It was very informative, and the staff were extremely knowledgeable. There's so much more behind the scene that nobody sees. Well worth the visit. Admission is free, and contributions are welcome. They do amazing rehabilitation and rescue efforts that most have no understanding of. They provide expert knowledge and willing to share such. I can't say enough about this organization. Much more than a general aquarium tour. Special thanks to Mrs. Whitney, Mrs Lara, and Mr. Bryon. Definitely will be returning.

Wonderful place to visit. No cost. Butterfly garden and outside areas have mosquitoes so off could be helpful for a leisurely walk. Haha. They love me. They have a great rescue and treatment program for the sea turtles there.

Super cute place, asks for donations. Staff was super knowledgeable about all the animals. Kids had a good time. Little gift shop inside. Small walking trails, stroller friendly

Park with noble mission for preservation of sea Turtles 🐢 for generations to come 💙 As well as rescuing any Turtles that need medical attention. They accept donations instead of a fee to enter and it goes to the rescue and medical attention of FL Turtles and Sealife conservation and rehab 🐢🐟🐠🐡🐳

Great space. Takes about an hour to do/see everything. Great mission which I support 110% I would suggest getting up early and going right when they open as we had to wait about 20 minutes for a parking space to open up.

Parking is limited on the weekends here. This nature center is beyond beautiful! The butterflies, birds, squirrels, ocean, and mangrove trees are just amazing. What a lovely cost-free, experience in nature!

Visiting for the second time. Kids absolutely love this place. Butterfly garden, trails, turtles, aquarium and very friendly staff. Can spend about an hour or two here, the place is not that big. Plenty parking under the trees

We can’t believe this place is free! So many fabulous learning opportunities for the kids. We enjoyed learning about so many sea creatures and seeing animals in rehabilitation. Great place to spend part of a day!

Absolutely superb experience at Gumbo Limbo Nature Center! Free admission (we weren’t sure when we first walked in, but the staff was incredibly attentive, patient, kind, and informative. This center not only provides education to visitors of all ages, but provides crucial services to help sea turtles survive and thrive! They have a hatching center that you can see down into; we came just before the expected hatching week; but can wait to go back so we can see FAU taking care of the turtles after they hatch. While this center is free, they encourage donations, we would highly recommend everyone donate at least some funds to help out their cause. If you don’t have cash, there are some convenient card donation machines in the gift shop. Lots to do and see, I would highly recommend a visit here.

This is a great place for any age to visit and learn more about the beloved Florida Sea Turtles. There is no admission fee. Actual research and rehabilitation happens on-site in cooperation with Florida Atlantic University. There is a beautiful walk that goes through a butterfly garden and stops along the Intracoastal waterway. It wasn't an overcrowded attraction but there was not a shortage of visitors. The Aquarium has a huge eel like I've never seen before. They even sell a stuffed version of this character in the gift shop. If you are local or visiting it's worth checking out on a beach day.

This place is a free gem. A quick walk across A1A from the Atlantic Ocean. The aquatic nature center is Interesting and informative for kids, adults and seniors. Fish of all sizes and species are freely swimming in large aquarium tanks or pools. Small seahorses and other aquatic life are on display in an indoor lab. Students from the FAU School of Environmental, Coastal, and Ocean Sustainability (ECOS) are available to answer questions. It was a windy day when I visited, so there was no activity in the butterfly area.

Absolutely so much fun! Adults and children both can enjoy! They have huge, huge tanks with all sorts of fish that come straight up to the window and tanks with baby sea turtles that they are nursing and protecting. There's a cute little gift sho other I fell in love with. Everything from necklaces, bracelets, shark teeth, turtle trinkets, and more. I had an absolute ball coming here. Come support this place!

Was a really nice place, lots of fish and animals to see, a nature walk with many plants. I will say it's hard to find a parking spot so you have to either get there early or drop off your crew and wait till one opens up. Staff are very knowledgeable and friendly!

Excellent conversation center focused on local ecology, especially in understanding and aiding Sea Turtles. Pretty amazing to see all of the different hatchery rooms and rehabilitation rooms and all of the hard work that goes into it. Great boardwalks meander through forest-like areas. And eventually lead to an open area with beautiful views (photos). Cool aquarium in the entrance building as well as a fun gift shop. Useful poster on Florida’s venomous snakes for anyone interested!

If it's not prime weather for snorkeling or even after an early high tide snorkeling day then Gumbo Limbo is the next best thing. Nice place to visit, parking is free for nature center only. Definitely creative motivation to donate An acrylic painting. exciting, entertaining and educational.

Had a great time at Gumbo Limbo. This is a great place to bring the kids for cheap. There are tanks with sea turtles being rehabilitated as well as several aquarium tanks with all sorts of fish and creatures! My favorite were the pufferfish! Every where was pretty wheelchair accessible and there were plenty of bathrooms.

The last time I had visited here was over 15 years ago, so it was a treat to take my children to a place I enjoyed on school trips! Very educational place, and the lessons they teach about the animals and their importance to our fragile ego system was great for our 4 year old! My 2 year old just loved the 2 large aquariums and the Sea Turtle Rehabilitation tanks. The people here and kind and very knowledgeable, and I appreciate their willingness to teach and answer questions. They have a beautiful butterfly garden, but these days it’s a bit too got to spend a lot of time there, the kids did not enjoy the heat. Most of this place is outside, and I’m thinking of trying again end of the year when it’s a bit cooler. My fav part was the Boardwalk from the parking lot next door to the Center, it’s a beautiful walk in nature, and I got a ton of pics. But you don’t need to park there to walk it! Notes: overflow parking next door is not free, it’s pay by hour. Also, it’s $5 donation to visit here and I highly suggest paying as the proceeds help this wonderful place keep going, as well as help it’s Animal residents cared for. Bring Water/Snacks/Comfy Shoes too!

Such a great find!!! The bathrooms are very clean. The nature center is well kept. Very kid friendly. The butterfly garden is amazing!!! My family and I enjoyed the turtles,the aquarium, and the red snack. They have a lovely and friendly staff. Well kept gift shop. Loved it!!!

Great place to view the sea turtles and other aquatic life. . There’s also a really amazing nature trail Thru the mangroves. Family friendly and lots of parking.

I walked on the Gumbo Limbo boardwalk that’s between Ocean Blvd. Parking which is to the south and attached to the Golf Course and the Gumbo Limbo Nature Center. The boardwalk is almost half a mile with a couple of side trails. You can go into the Nature Center for free but they ask for donations. Suggested $5.00 donation per person. That’s a great deal. I’m sure it’s only a small part of what keeps this place running. There is also a gift shop off the main room that has very nice gifts. Everything is a bit expensive but you are helping to support Gumbo Limbo so it’s fine. My wife got a nice canvas shoulder bag with a turtle on it. Now that the Nature Center is reopened to the public I went there with my wife and my mother. I didn’t really know what to expect inside the Nature Center. Once inside there are a few exhibits to look at. The woman at the desk asked us if we needed a map and suggested that we go to see the Turtle talk downstairs. We just happened to arrive just before this talk was starting So we headed off down to the lower lever. There is a long ramp that switches back for wheelchair or walkers to easily use. There were about 20 people there listening to the talk. It was about the different turtles in the tanks there. She explained a little about each turtle and why it was there. Gumbo Limbo is made up of four different parts. Boardwalk, Turtle rescue, Fish, Butterfly garden. The butterfly garden is on the north end and it has a path called Ashley Trail that heads around and down to the intercoastal where there is a small beach and bench. It’s a good place to relax and look at the water. Entering the water is not allowed. The Outdoor Marine Aquariums are amazing. Two large tanks about three feet deep with windows so you can view the fish swimming from above or through the windows plus another two tanks over ten feet deep that you view through large windows. We spend a long time watching the fish, rays, turtles, eels moving around the tanks. Signs identify each of the different species. Gumbo Limbo is run by both paid employees and volunteers. Talking to one volunteer she said that they are made up of year round and some snow bird volunteers. Everyone is friendly and helpful. We will be back to both walk the boardwalk and to visit the Nature Center.

The nature center has Florida native fish, a butterfly garden and turtles. The volunteers are nice and knowledgeable. The outdoor area has plenty of shade so you can visit even in the hottest days. Parking lot is small so be ready to wait for a spot, parking is free and the entrance is a suggested donation.

Very friendly staff and they love to answer questions. Learn a lot about Florida sea life. Parking lot is not too big. Was able to find on on premise. Best thing is no cost to visit. Donations are welcomed.

This places is great and so are the people that volunteer here. The sea horses seem to be the biggest hit. My fav is the fish tank as some of the fish will follow you around. It’s very educational, there’s a ton to learn and the butterfly garden is very peaceful and relaxing. Even in the heat I could’ve stayed there all day.

Very friendly and informative staff at this nature center! It is free with free parking and worth a visit if your in the area. They do accept donations and its worth supporting as they help alot of marine wild life such as sea turtles!

I happened to come by while an observation tower was being revamped and the rescue turtles were off site so I missed a bit. Other than that, the grounds are pretty. There are walking trails. There are daily programs so I got to see the fish being fed. Highly recommended.

A wonderful place for exploration, learning and making friends with the fish! Love the giant aquariums, spotting butterflies, plants and turtles! Fascinating place to learn about the eco-system around!

Such a cool educational place to take kids! Seeing the rescued turtles and learning about their stories and rehabilitation was really cool. My son loves Spider-Man, and one of the rescues was named Peter Parker, so he loved watching her (it was a girl!) It’s an amazing establishment to be caring for these creatures. There’s also a lot of information on how littering decomposes and the effects of the materials in the water. Staff was very friendly and seemed to care very much about their work!

Amazing! Turtles, aquariums and a awesome nature board walk. One of my kids favorite places to spend the day. Great place to bring family to visit.

This place is GREAT, it has turtles in the sea and they sadly got sugery:( but they are ok I LOVE turtles

This place is fun for the whole family. Be aware there are no complimentary wheelchairs. Admission is your choice of donation (around $5/person).

Great spot to visit with family and friends. We come every so often and usually bring family and friends visiting from out of town and the kids always love it. Always interesting and informative for the kids and adults.

Nature

One of my favorite places in Florida! They do amazing work! I highly recommend it here 😊💚

I absolutely love sea turtles so we made a stop here and it was amazing! Donation of $5 per person and you get to see the turtles up close, read and hear about them, why they are there for rehab and how they are released! Everyone was super friendly and knowledgeable and loved to answer questions! Will definitely return when we are back in Florida!

This is a fantastic place to go to and to enjoy some amazing aquatic setups. They have a really interesting turtle talk. They also have gopher turtles roaming a large section. The gift shop is very nice. They are currently working on the boardwalk that goes to the north side. It seems as though they will be done in under a year. The FAU research section is quite the sight to see.

These people do really great work saving the sea turtles! The boardwalk is great and ends by a park with a bbq pit and table. I read the review that said they were thrown out when they tried to feed their kids in the car and can't believe that's what happened. While it is free, there is a suggested donation of $5. If you go, please give that donation so these people can continue working on wildlife!

Takes the kids for something to see and things to learn. Kids that love animals will love this little area. Watch out for the spiders along your hike to the butterfly area, there is webs along the walkway but it is cool to see.

Great place to spend a couple of hours. The sea turtles were very cool to watch. Don't forget to check out the butterfly garden. Overflow parking is available just south at Red Reef Park.

Insane experience! It is super cool to walk around with your kids. There is a lot of information for them to learn and things for everyone to see! There is a turtle hospital where you can watch procedures to see sick/hurting turtles be taken care of. Also, you can see a turtle sanctuary where they care for baby turtles until they are ready to be on their own!

My son loved all the fishes you can see there, Florida nature. They have a preserve turtle program. All clean and easy to go, friendly workers, entrance you give a donation. I’ll be back soon.

So glad we decided to stop by! It was a recommendation from a couple we met in Juno Beach, since the Loggerhead place over there did not have sea turtles. It is such a neat and good sized knowledge center. They are free to the public and welcome donations. It should really charge an entrance fee, because all the care they provide to the sea turtles and their habitat is expensive! If you can make a donation, please do so :) They have 3 tanks in which each of them houses sea life from different environments in the ocean. You get to see the volunteers feed the fish, they do a turtle talk, you can ask questions about the turtles that are being cared for, see rescued hatchlings and see butterflies. You can easily spend 2 hours here learning about sea turtles, why they are important to the world and why we need to help by recycling and refusing plastic. They do offer sea turtles nest walks and hatchings releases during the summer, but those fill fast and you have to do the reservation in advance. No walk ins since space is limited. Parking is free, the entrance right off A1A, there are water stations throughout and volunteers are mire than happy to answer questions or give information. John at the turtle station was awesome and full of knowledge! Everyone was nice, friendly and happy to show you the importance of keeping the ocean and it's creatures cared for. Thanks for a good time!

Amazing place to go on a day date. Very fun to explore! And it's free! You can spend a couple of hours there walking around and checking out the aquariums throughout the property. It has a nice smallish nature walk that leads to a small beach on the bay. Don't pass up on this place!

This place is fantastic! It has a wide variety of creatures to see and learn about. it's was such a wonderful experience seeing some of these creatures in real life for the first time.

What a great find for a weekend. A walkway bridge with nature trail, butterfly garden, sea turtle rehabilitation area and tanks with several species of fish. Great place to spend the day learning about local wildlife and enjoying the outdoors!

Absolutely love this place! I have been coming here since high school and its such a joy to share it with my son! It's one of our favorite nature centers in the area. It is always beautifully kept up and the staff is wonderful! Definitely recommend to anyone who wants to learn more about our coast!

Great place to bring kids and adults too. I’ve cane here my whole life bad I think it’s a great place. Animals are great and fun. Customer service or the front desk is nice and friendly. Love it

Great place to visit, The center is donation based. They help injured turtles with recovery. The center is kids friendly with a treasure hunt available for kids. The gift shop sells items by 4ocean and benjihicks.

Visited here a while ago I wish it was open now it’s very relaxing

the tortles are wonderful. they are doing their best to get better.

Fun place for kids or adults to see Florida's sealife and how to take care of it 👍

It's a great experience....take your kids enjoy nature and walk around the trees!!!

I strongly encourage to visit this place once it reopens. This is a rehabilitation center for sea turtles. The volunteers are knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. They run small show, where they explain about the different turtles, how they got injured , and when they are expected to be released. Do not miss out on the aquariums they have on site and the board walk. They have free Parking onsite.

10-09-2020 Gumbo Limbo remains CLOSED to the public due to COVID. Although Google shows it is open, call first to verify. It is a fantastic facility aimed at Sea Turtle and marinelife rehabilitation, with top-notch volunteers and staff that love to educate visitors about the varieties of sea Turtles under their care. Make sure to visit once they reopen! (The boardwalk remains open with parking south of the facility... Signs direct you to parking) A nice view of the intercoastal at the west end.

I have been here a number of times throughout my life and will continue to return. It’s a nice small place that is a go to destination around this area. It’s a nice place to see the cute animals. The set up of the place is attractive, and great and friendly staff. Gumbo Limbo has a great mission and they continue with it well. The area of Boca Raton is nice, it’s a great town. The location has easy access parking and it’s easy to get to. I recommend Gumbo Limbo, if you haven’t been there yet, you should visit!

Great place for family and kids

Fantastic. A beautiful, calm and peaceful place.

Great place to take a walk.

It’s a nice experience for a family. But it’s pretty small. It’s more of a we’ll drop in because we’re around kind of place. Half of an afternoon kind of place. Great for turtle lovers

Great place to take the family.

Excellent educational programs, nice trails. Good for the whole family as they provide activities for all ages

A friend took me here and was overjoyed he did. It’s 20 acres with 4 aquariums, butterflies, trails, living coral reefs and they conduct conservation research. Free.

This place was really neat.

My 10 and 12 year olds and Ioved this place, we got to see rescued sea turtles and other sea life, huge fish aquariums and there is an outdoor natural area/small trail too.

Great place to visit for all ages!

Nice and beautiful center, and you only give 5 dollar for donations and you contribute at the place to be nice. And also you can be volunteer just field a inscription

(Translated by Google) It is an amazing place that does an extraordinary job. They are responsible for recovering marine spices mainly turtles, the place is very beautiful and their workers are willing to tell you about the history of each turtle recovered. Admission is free, but a donation of about $ 5 per person is estimated, which is worth it since they do a great job. Excellent walk to do as a family. (Original) Es un lugar increíble que hace un trabajo extraordinario. Se encargan de recuperar especias marinas principalmente tortugas, el lugar es muy bello y sus trabajadores están dispuestos a contarte sobre la historia de cada tortuga recuperada. La entrada es gratuita, pero se estima una donación de unos 5 dólares por persona, lo cual lo vale ya que hacen un trabajo grandioso. Excelente paseo para hacer en familia.

It's an amazing little park with aquariums, a perfect place to visit if you love nature

It’s beautiful and so well maintained and the staff are amazing!

Very educational, very friendly staff, & volunteers.

(Translated by Google) Gumbo Limbo is a cool center for the care of turtles and fish and rays. People are terrible because they harm turtles and other animals, but people from the center treat and release turtles into the ocean.It is such a curiosity that fishing nets in Florida have a hole for the flow of turtles, and other states do not have it. Nice volunteers worked there, and they were seniors. (Original) Gumbo Limbo to fajne centrum opiekowania się żółwiami.Są też tam ryby i płaszczki. Ludzie są straszni, bo wyrządzają krzywdę żółwiom i innym zwierzakom, Ale ludzie z centrum leczą i wypuszczają żółwie do oceanu.Jeszcze taka ciekawostka, że sieci rybackie na Florydzie mają otwór do wypływania żółwi, a inne stany tego nie mają. Pracowali tam mili wolontariusze, a byli nimi seniorzy.

Very nice facility. The nature walk was done very well, nice boardwalk. Spoke with several employees and all were very pleasant and informative.

What a great stop, the sea turtle rescue section was a real gem with friendly & knowledgeable volunteers ready to talk about the turtles in their rescue program. The butterfly garden was nice as well as the wetland boardwalk, too bad you couldn't get more of a view of the water while on the boardwalk.

Fantastic!

Very nice and educational place, staff is super friendly

Thank you to the people of gumbo limbo for all they are doing to preserve the turtles of the ocean. Beautiful facility and wonderful volunteers. Great way to spend half a day.

I loved it there so much! Beautiful little getaway. I am a kid at heart so I had a blast. Free of charge ( donations are suggested )

If you haven’t been here yet, MAKE IT A POINT TO GO. It’s beautiful and so well maintained and the staff are amazing! What this place stands for creates the hope we need in humanity. There’s a donation of $5 per person requested upon entrance which goes to maintaining everything. There’s trails, a gift shop, you can see where the turtles are being rehabilitated, there’s a bunch of other fish too! It’s so nice that places like this exist because zoos are completely inappropriate and I believe unless the animals are hurt or in danger or endangered, they should be in their natural habitats! A great place for kids, and even some adults to learn how bad plastics are for not only the ocean but life as well.

Very good service

Spent nearly a full day at the centre, plenty to see and do. Exmouth is a great place to visit with plenty of diving, fishing, surfing, great beaches, hikes, nature and history to explore. Could stay in this region for weeks and not run out of things to do.

The aquarium is fabulous. Very well done. You can sit on front of the main aquarium and take it all in.

Great, lots to see a good variety of items and articles. Great displays and aquarium. The cafe has good coffee and food.

A nice way to spend an hour or so with the kids. Helpful staff and a pleasant cafe.

Worth a visit! Really enjoyed the aquarium, reptiles and displays. Had some great information on Exmouth town in the bus

Great place but the aquarium needs more things added to it. But overall has a place to buy sea animals teddies and a café.

Lovely centre and aquarium. Worth a visit. However I wanted to buy a souvenir but nobody to serve me. Dissapointed that there are no land tours available. We are elderly woman without a car and would have liked to have seen some of the countryside however no public buses or taxis and no bus tours available

Such a great tourist experience, kids loved it. Visited art exhibition this time as well. That wasn't so kid friendly. A pleasant way to spend a windy Sunday afternoon.

At first we thought the aquarium looked like a waste of money but once in the kids loved it .Great experience

Great snorkeling and under water swimming experience in Exmouth and Coral Bay western Australia.

A must-see stop in Exmouth!

Very helpful staff. Learn all you need to for your stay in Exmouth.

That's a big prawn !

Beautiful place to visit with a great aquarium and reptile area.

Small but nice

Looks like still in development but going into right direction.

Very informative and well done.

This place was a super helpful start when we arrived, maps and loads of information on what there is to do and see in exmouth. Definitely worth stopping in

Aquarium is overpriced and the fish looked sad

Lots of history, very informative.

WE GOT TO EXMOUTH AT 120PM ON A SATURDAY COMING FROM CORAL BAY. THE PLACE WAS CLOSED - IT SHUT AT 1PM. THE WEBSITE SAYS SATURDAY 830AM TO 5PM (NOW NOTICED A LITTLE TRIANGLE IN RED-SAYS "HOURS MAY DIFFER" WHAT A JOKE - WASTE OF TIME AND FUEL. SUGGEST YOU RING THEM FIRST , DONT TRUST THEM!

Well worth a visit.

Very informative and fun

Great for a visit

Great place to visit, kids enjoyed it and spent an hour there. Helpful staff and not heavily populated at the time.

Really informative and educational.

Just ok, a disappointing lack of fish!! Souvenir prices excessive, overseas tourist prices!! I think the centre is a work in progress. Best part was making a digital fish for the "tank".

Very informative, great place to learn

Good place to know about Exmouth history and Ningaloo Reef marine animals. There is a cafe and a library in the same centre.

Really good place to visit

The aquarium was good but probably a little overpriced for the size however still a good experience

A well constructed educational experience

Gives great information. Check the place out

The atmosphere , warmth

Source of commercial pamphlets for tourist options in the area. Free guide to the ningaloo reserve area available.

Interesting gallery and good mix of fish and reptile mini zoo

Bit disappointed wasn't really much to see wish there was more sealife to see especially given how celebrated the local sealife is.

Nice new place but i expected more for the money we payed

Loved the place

Great value, took about 1.5hrs to check out

Acquarium and other fauna exhibits are outstanding

The nature center is really lovely. It's a small suggested donation to get in so it can make for a great low cost option for a family outting. You can see the turtles being rehabilited, their are large fish tanks to enjoy, some baby turtles, and a small tank with sea horses. We tried to butterfly section but it's not really the season so we saw about two butterflys. Instead we did get chewed alive by mosquitos so bring insect repellent if you want to check out the butterfly section.

My new favorite nature center! All the typical nature center activities (trails, butterfly garden) plus Turtles, Turtles, Turtles and more Turtles! The beautiful "shipwreck tank" aquarium is also a highlight and can be viewed outdoors. Admission is free but I hope you'll make a donation (easy to do with the self-service credit card donation machines I'm the lobby). We went on a super busy day over winter break and it was VERY DIFFICULT to find parking, but the bathrooms were still clean and the buildings still did not feel crowded.

This is a place I have visited several times when I am down in Florida. As an environmental educator, it gives me great joy to visit a place that is designed to educate the public about our environment and how we can participate in taking better care of our local places and spaces. Gumbo Limbo does an amazing job with providing visitors with a feel for the local flora and fauna while also rescuing and rehabilitating some of the poor victims of disease or human caused injuries. The paths, trails, boardwalks, butterfly gardens, nature center and more give plenty to do for people of all ages. Love this place!

Wonderful place for all ages to spend time in nature and visit marine life, butterflies 🦋 learn about marine life, the environment and the amazing array of turtles! 🐢 This is a great free resource for everyone in the lovely city of Boca Raton. It’s free to visit, spend an afternoon and learn much about turtle rehabilitation, humans effects on marine life and more!

The park is such an amazing place. Clean, organized and well maintained area! Signage and maps are available around the park plus paper copy by the entrance. Associates are very nice and friendly! Will definitely recommend to visit!

Great place to take the kids. My kids always enjoy being here. They have lots of interesting things plus a great hiking area. It’s very calming at the same time very fun to be at. Kids playground is great for parents to rest while kiddos take all their energy out to continue enjoying the museum. Their gift shop is also a great place to get something little to remember the place by.

It was pretty good, you can't complain because it's free of charge which doesn't really happen anywhere these days... some of it was closed due to building projects going on ... I can recommend a visit ...take some Moskito spray with you for the butterfly garden...my wife was eaten alive from them...
