Gumbo Limbo Nature Center (Closed Temporarily)

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

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
