I forgot to tell you and I think that October may be too late, but they have an amazing turtle watch program. When I first went to Vero Beach, my mom was walking on the beach really early in the morning and found baby turtles that had just hatched. They were so cute. The next time we went, I took the turtle tour thing and we saw eggs and got to adopt a turtle( they track them in the ocean.) It is really cool, so I would definitely recommend that if it is avaliable. It is one of my best memories of there. They also have really great seashells. If you get up early in the morning ( I think around 6) then you can walk along the beach and pick some up. I love it because obviously Kentucky is nowhere near the ocean.

They make great keepsakes.
