Owls Roost at Hobe Sound Nature Center

By Kristen Hampshire, Seaside Retailer

On a refuge of scrub habitat comprised of native plants and animals that are threatened or endangered sits an educational and experiential gem. Visiting Hobe Sound Nature Center is like taking an immersive course in conservation, with its extensive programming, free-admission nature center, educational outreach and camps. Anyone can stop in and hike the trails, visit the small stretch of sugar-sand beach on the Indian River Lagoon and visit the “animal ambassadors” that are non-releasable wildlife.
