The center is free to enter with a suggested donation. They have a daily Turtle Talk at 10:30am and tours at 12:30 and 2:30pm that are $10 for adults. The turtle talk was interesting - volunteers go over anatomy of turtles and specifics of the seven marine turtle species worldwide. It's a fun educational event for kids and teens since they pass around turtle shells and skulls. Volunteer docents are also available to give more info about the turtles out in the tanks which are in various stages of recovery. The center has a full veterinary facility on site to help care for and treat the turtles brought to the center, and there's a big window to see them as they work. I really recommend spending an hour or two here, it's a great way to get out of the sun for a bit and learn more about endangered, local species!
