Excellent Staff and Nature Walk
I stopped at the Biscayne National Park visitor center for a brief visit as I only had about an hour available. I walked through the indoor exhibits and learned a great deal about the bay and it’s flora and fauna. The staff were extremely friendly and provided a lot of information (and bug spray) about the park and activities available. The weather was rainy, but I did take a walk along the boardwalk and through the mangroves along a jetty to get better views of the bay. While a boat trip is preferable in Biscayne National Park, this was a nice place to stop considering I only had a little time available. Next time, armed with a better knowledge of the boat tours and snorkeling available, I plan to see more of this park.

DFVC
We didn’t know exactly what Biscayne National Park had to offer and figured that the VC was the place to start. We learned that not just 90% of the park is located in the water, its more like 98% of the park is located in the water. The visitor center has a few displays from 1700’s shipwrecks that are near, but the only trail near the VC is closed for reconstruction currently. Friendly people, however if you are someone who is not into water activities there is not too much here to do.
