This is an outstanding museum you don't want to miss. We spent 4 hours going through all the exhibits. You can see it in half the time if you don't attend the 2 hour movie, but it is a highlight as it provides you the history of the Seals from beginning to present and we learned a lot. I highly recommend it. You will enjoy sitting in a black hawk helicopter, maybe seeing and petting a Navy K9 puppy, seeing Seal Delivery vehicles, maybe trying out the obstacle course, and getting a real appreciation for all the Seals do! You can even dress up for a photo opp!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Al's Family Farm. They have an excellent selection of citrus that is delicious. You can sample the citrus and juice. The honeybell juice is the BEST! Sherry was a friendly and fun tour guide. You get to see the fruit from tree to packaged. We shipped citrus home. It is a great tour for all ages. It was a highlight of our week in the area.

This beach has the feel of a true hidden gem. Soft light colored sand and the water incredibly clear for the Atlantic. Somehow there are no crowds and we had about 50 yards of gorgeous beach. We had seen a manatee swimming close to the shore here a few months ago

I have attended many, many performances at this great theatre from Jackie Mason to Martin Short to the legendary Smothers Brothers to Jay Leno and many more. It is beautiful and well maintained. Line of sight, and sound is tremendous. Plenty of area parking. Wonderful restaurants and bars within just yards away. Do yourself a favor and visit their website and purchase tickets for a show.
