Take a trip Beneath the Surface to learn about our connections to Florida’s manatees. Dive in to our newly upgraded classroom to watch an animated short film about the day in a life of a manatee. Follow along with a manatee mother named Mia, and her energetic young calf, Manny. Together they navigate a beautiful underwater world full of history, wonder, and challenges.
“Beneath the Surface: Our Connection to Florida’s Manatees” is produced by Riley Animation Studios and is set in an artistic marine ecosystem themed environment. Visit Manatee Lagoon- An FPL Eco-Discovery Center® to immerse yourself in this heartfelt call to action, emphasizing the importance of protecting manatees and their habitats for future generations.
The film is available for viewing at select times throughout the day. Please be aware that program offerings are subject to change and availability may also vary based on factors such as staff schedules or other program bookings.
Thank you to Friends of Manatee Lagoon for funding this exhibit and furthering our mission of manatee and marine life education.
