Park After Dark - Manatees at Night

It is amazing to experience the serenity and atmosphere of the park after dark. Enjoy the sounds of the manatees exhaling, along with the sounds of owls, other birds and night creatures.

Kick off the adventure with a Nature Journaling Class, where you'll learn to capture the wonders of the wild through art and observation. Adults and kids can dive into hands-on crafts.

Pack a picnic dinner and savor the breathtaking sunset as it paints the sky with dazzling hues. Then, as darkness falls, stroll the boardwalk, where nature comes alive in new and unexpected ways. Listen to the mysterious night sounds, the exhalations of sleeping manatees, spot elusive wildlife, and look for the gator eyes in the water.

Throughout the journey, friendly volunteers will be stationed and ready to share their knowledge and answer your questions. Whether you're here to explore, create, or simply enjoy the beauty of nature, this is an evening you won’t want to miss!
