Manatee Springs State Park

We recently had guests from New England and took them to the Manatee Park, also our first visit there as we are new to this area. There were numerous manatees that day, all sizes. The viewing area is such that you can actually see them rather close. Also there was an informational talk about the manatees and a very informative talk about the butterfly garden and the butterflies and their life cycle. The walk around the park grounds is very pleasant and there is even kayaking available. Before we left we enjoyed our picnic in the beautiful surroundings. We look forward to our next visit to this Lee County Park and hope there will be manatees there again. It is great for all ages!!
