Pelican Harbor Seabird Station
 Included
Entry with the Go Miami Card
Get to know south Florida's favorite ambassador, the Brown Pelican. On a flyway in the middle of beautiful Biscayne Bay, walk among the pelicans, while watching many other local birds such as herons, osprey, and even frigatebirds. In the winter months you may even catch a glimpse of a baby pelican.
For more than 25 years, the Seabird Station has been rescuing, rehabilitating,
and releasing sick and injured seabirds, mostly brown pelicans. Visitors
can tour the facility and see first-hand how Pelican Harbor Seabird
Station is working to protect and preserve South Florida's seabird
populations.
Tip: Feeding time is normally between 4:00 and 5:00 pm. Call on day of visit for exact time. Groups of six or more should call ahead to arrange tour times.
