The Wetlands Institute

a small treasure

This is an amazing place. Our favorite in the island! We are a family with kids from 5-12 and the kids love seeing touching and feeding the turtles and looking at the fish and saying hi to “Frank” the octopus at the aquarium. Our oldest was inspired to study marine biology and would like to intern here as the people who intern here are wonderful with kids. The views are stunning and peaceful, our grandparents enjoy the nice walk in the bridges and feeling the nice breeze. For us, we have to visit the Wetlands every time we come to the shore. We became members as we want to support places like these to remain open. We highly recommend for all ages.

Loved our safari boat tour. Informative guides bring the sea life onto the boat to safely teach. I loved it. It was a great birthday gift.

Awesome place to bird watch and learn about the marshes. Nice walk too

This place has been around since I was a young kid. Its educational and has great programs for educating our youth about our environment and ecosystems
