Continue down the trail and you’ll encounter a species that is not native to Florida; two 14-foot Burmese Pythons. Learn how this invasive species arrived in Florida and how they are an ecological threat to the environment.

    Coral Reef

    The Coral Reef Gallery is a one-of-a-kind view into one of the most beautiful and diverse ecosystems in the world - a habitat normally explored only by experienced divers. The gallery simulates a 60-foot dive starting in shallow-water reefs and descending to deeper waters. Each viewing window presents a micro habitat which changes as the depth increases.
