A Peaceful Visit to the Loggerhead Marinelife Center – Sea Turtles, Ocean Calm & Mindful Moments

Have you ever needed a moment of calm—but also a touch of wonder? My recent visit to the Loggerhead Marinelife Center in Juno Beach, Florida, was exactly that. This inspiring place offers more than a look at adorable sea turtles. They also have jellyfish, lion fish and a shark! The best part is - Admission is free (donations  are always welcome!) 🌊🐢

In my new YouTube video, I take you on a peaceful walk through the center. You’ll see rescued sea turtles recovering in their tanks, learn about their stories, with the soothing atmosphere of the ocean and nature all around. There are very nice volunteers ready to talk about each turtle being taken care of. Don't be shy, ask them your questions. The video is part of my "Travel Moments with Gwen" series—but this one has a special touch of calm, perfect for anyone who needs a gentle mental reset.

This experience inspired me to reflect on how important it is to protect our oceans—and how nature can soothe our souls. The Loggerhead Marinelife Center is doing incredible work rehabilitating turtles and educating the public, and I’m grateful to share that peaceful energy with you through my video.

If you love sea life, mindful moments, or unique places to visit in Florida, I hope you’ll give it a watch and subscribe to follow along on more relaxing adventures. 🌴✨

This was a fun place for kids too.  My Grandson is a toddler on the spectrum and he enjoyed himself a lot here.  We took him for his 4th Birthday.

Are you a nature lover? Do you enjoy biking? If so, then the Shark Valley 15-mile loop in the Florida Everglades National Park is the perfect place to visit! This unique paved biking trail, offers a scenic adventure through the beautiful and diverse Everglades amongst the wildlife that call the Everglades home. The trail is relatively flat and easy to navigate, making it an ideal experience for bikers of all skill levels.  Just remember that the wind will be blowing in the opposite direction after you leave the observation tower. However, it is important to remember to stay alert and keep a safe distance from the wildlife. You will see alligators all along the trail and some beautiful waterbirds.  It really is a great place for nature lovers to visit.
