“Protecting Sea Turtles” All sea turtles are protected by state and federal law and yet there are some countries that still allow the sale of sea turtle products. Learn how we can all help no matter where we live.
“Marine Mammals” most of our guest that visit Key West may have a close encounter of the “Mammal Kind” as they snorkel or boat our waters. What are the do’s and don’ts when it comes to these encounters and why?

Opening the first week in August 2011, we hope that the Learning Cove becomes a great hit with children and parents alike.
