  • While we were in the Middle Keys, we took an awesome tour of The Turtle Hospital on Marathon!
    It's a great way to use your tourism to support local wildlife conservation efforts and directly help sick, entangled, or injured sea turtles.
    We learned a lot about the local Green Sea Turtles, Loggerheads, Leatherbacks, as well as Kemp's Ridley and others!
    We even got to sea two turtles release back into the sea where they belong.
    Wether they're entangled in fishing line or nets, hurt by boat strikes, struggling with Fibropapilloma tumors, or have swallowed plastic or fishhooks, the Turtle Hospital is here to help.
    If you're looking for things to do in the Florida Keys, this could be a great halfway stop while you're driving down.
    Don't forget to stop at Keys Fisheries for some Stone Crab claws or a Lobster Reuben, too!

      That was Star! Star and Prancer, both juvenile green sea turtles you see a lot of in this video, were released from Higgs Beach on Key West on February 10th! They’re back out there munching seagrass somewhere!
