Come see what’s new at Manatee Lagoon – An FPL Eco-Disovery Center®! We’ve reopened our enhanced facility, and you’re invited to come enjoy the new offerings. Every day from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., visit our educational building, upper and lower observation decks, a new augmented reality solar 3D exhibit, and tropical grounds with outstanding views of the picturesque Lake Worth Lagoon.While spotting manatees is not guaranteed, Manatee Lagoon is an ideal location to see them during cooler weather when they congregate near the clean, warm-water outflow of the adjacent FPL Rivera Beach Next Generation Clean Energy Center. The likelihood of seeing a manatee increases during manatee season, which begins November 15th.
