COUNTDOWN TO MANATEEFEST :

 

Self-Guided Tour

EXPLORE AND LEARN AT YOUR CONVENIENCE

About the Exhibit:

No matter what time of day you visit Manatee Lagoon, now you have the option of taking a self-guided tour! Learn from Manatee Masters through fun, educational videos that teach you about a wide variety of topics, including manatee biology, an explanation of why we don’t feed the manatees at Manatee Lagoon, why manatees are like snowbirds, and more. To experience a self-guided tour, look for the signage with QR codes. Simply scan the codes in your smart phone’s camera app, and then click the corresponding links to watch the videos. Since you can watch whenever you want, this new self-guided tour option is the ultimate in convenience and infotainment!
