CLOSE ENCOUNTERS WITH STING RAYS AND SEA TURTLES
Good for kids and for adults who don't scuba dive. Here you get to see the sting rays being fed, and gamefish being fed. There's also sea turtles feedings. There were kids here when I came. Covid protocols are not in force. Each visitor decides whether to wear a mask and whether to maintain social distancing. Adults are charged $16. Kids under twelve are changed half price. The facility isn't open on certain days.
