The Marine Station is a research center focusing on understanding the complex ecosystems of the offshore waters of Florida's central and east coast. The exhibit’s purpose is to educate visitors about the fragility of the ecosystems and how humans impact them. It consists of six different Florida marine habitats. The largest is a Caribbean coral reef with many different types of colorful coral. It’s fascinating to observe the coral while keeping in mind that they are animals and not the plants that they resemble. The exhibit is small but interesting with a very knowledgeable staff.
Everything is accessible.
The parking area is small but there’s also parking where RVs will fit at St. Lucie County Regional History Center and at the parking areas for the beach. Exnibit
