A LOVE STREET OUTDOOR CENTER tour of the the St. Lucie Inlet Preserve will bring you and your group to one of the few undeveloped areas on Florida’s east coast. It’s a popular spot with nature students to learn about native flora and fauna of Florida barrier islands.

Along the 3/4-mile boardwalk, you’ll likely see lots of wildlife. There’s long-legged ibises, colorful butterflies, spindly spiders, wide-winged ospreys hunting for fish and raccoons roustabouting through thick mangroves during your boat tours in Jupiter trip.

The island is an important nesting area for loggerhead, leatherback and green turtles. They come ashore at night to dig holes in the sand to lay their eggs.
You’ll know you are reaching the end of the trail when you hear the waves from the Atlantic Ocean through the thick mangroves.
Step out onto the beach, and you are in your own private paradise.
