outdoor and/or conservation fun in Palm Beach!
A bit north of South Florida but worth it for the sea turtles!

Cox Science Center and Aquarium
this is a coral restoration facility where they grow baby corals to be outplanted in the ocean! It will soon be open to the public around March 2025
The Reef Institute
check out the turtle rehab downstairs and then go walk the trails in the back! Visit during winter + spring
Gumbo Limbo Nature Center
Broward
Parks and places to visit that have to do with the outdoors!
my favorite park in Broward! I love rollerblading around the loop, visiting the restaurant, walking the trails, hanging with friends, and heading to the beach.
Hugh Taylor Birch State Park
fun place to learn more about turtles, the ocean, and local wetlands
Marine Environmental Education Center at the Carpenter House
Miami-Dade
outdoor fun in Miami-Dade county!
this place is INCREDIBLE! Best time to go is spring and early summer to experience the most fruits but it's a nice stroll and educational experience no matter what time you go
Fruit & Spice Park
delicious baked good, produce, and milkshakes. depending on when you go, there is u-pick fruit options (try winter for tomatoes)
