Fertile Turtles On the GO!!!!!

It's that time of the year again!! Turtles, Snakes and all animals in between are testing the theory that the grass is greener on the other side of the road. Use caution when driving. Reduce driving speed and look ahead for objects in the road. If you happen upon a turtle, the best thing to do is place it on the side of the road that it was heading toward. If it has been injured, place in a box and call a local nature center, zoo, or vet.

It's Ky-Yakin' Time Again!!



With the weather getting warmer and most of our summer season birds back, its time to get back on the water. Our two hour guided kayak tour includes a naturalist who can get you to the best locations to spot anything from wading birds to dolphins, sting rays, or even sea turtles! At high tide its very common to see sea life and birds aloft. During low tide, you can get out on a sandbar located at the innercoastal waterway. There we can see crabs, conchs, starfish and much more! Most kayak tours are during the mornings but we do moonrise and new moon kayaks as well. If interested in booking a kayak tour with our naturalists, please call us asap so we can book you, spots are limited!
