LUGARES PARA VISITAR

ATRACCIONES

Más aún para explorar, considerando que "no sólo de playa vive el hombre...", llega entonces el momento en que hay que rendirse al llamado para explorar. Niños de todas las edades aman la oportunidad que se les ofrece de arrimarse a especies marinas tales como los tiburones, manatíes y tortugas marinas que ofrece el Acuario Mote, así como con aves marinas rescatadas y tiernamente atendidas en el Refugio para Aves de Pelican Man's. Una bandada de flamencos rosados, otras aves y reptiles son las estrellas de espectáculos de entretenimiento que se presentan en los Jardines Selváticos de Sarasota y el asombro invade a los niños con su participación en las muestras científicas de G.WIZ, localizadas en la rivera de Sarasota. Regrese al pasado de la historia local en el Punto Histórico Español (Historic Spanish Point) con su montículo de desperdicios de caparazones de mariscos desechados por los indígenas, que data de 4,000 años, un asentamiento colonizador de pioneros, una antigua y acogedora capilla y sus históricos jardines. Y hablando de jardines, los Jardines Botánicos Marie Selby son una maravilla de 20,000 plantas con las que puede deleitar sus sentidos, incluyendo un Jardín de Alimentos Tropicales y 6,000 orquídeas.
