About the Business
The River Center, located in Jupiter, Florida, is a unique institution that serves as an aquarium, museum, and tourist attraction all in one. Its mission is to promote environmental stewardship for the Loxahatchee River's diverse watershed through educational programs, exhibits, and events.
Visitors to the River Center can explore live aquatic tanks, interactive exhibits, and a touch tank that showcase the various ecosystems of the Loxahatchee River, from freshwater swamps to marine environments. The center offers a fun and educational experience for school children, adults, visitors, and residents alike, allowing them to learn about Florida's first National Wild and Scenic River.
One of the highlights of the River Center is its science workshops, where participants can conduct experiments using everyday household items. These workshops aim to engage girls in science, teaching them about water chemistry, electrical currents, and environmental conservation.
Located in Burt Reynolds Park on US 1, the River Center is open from September 1st to May 31st on Tuesdays to Saturdays, and from June 1st to August 31st on Tuesdays to Wednesdays. Visitors can contact the center via phone or email for more information on education programs and volunteering opportunities.
Reviews
"Place is amazing. Sam is the best. Sometimes volunteers at front desk are a little… less inviting. But if you come when any of staff are there you will be welcomed woth joy and enthusiasm. Thank you RC folks for all you do!"
"Cute little wildlife center with facts about local animals and ecosystems. There was also a touch tank but it was down for service. My son did walk out with a free book they were giving away for free which was nice. I recommend this place for parents with small children. Not much for just adults. Parking was free and entrance to center as well."
"The center was small but lovely with some fascinating animals which include saltwater and freshwater fish and different reptiles. It also had a cool touch tank with some interesting animals. Staff was also amazing. Just a great center !"
"Wonderful! Family friendly place. Boating courses available. Very friendly and helpful staff."
"Excellent place to take the kids for an hour or two. The touch tank has a few sea animals that the kids get to interact with and the other tanks and displays are fun and educational."
