If you ever Go to port st Lucie make sure you visit the Manatee and Observation Center you will have to check some days are free and it is a fun and educational place to visit and you get to see the bones of a real manatee hang on the wall and other awesome things you will get to see and they have a big tower you can walk up to look for manatees in the water we did not get to see any that day. And they have hands on activity's for kids 

Also if you do find your self in Port st Lucie make sure you also check out the St Lucie County Aquarium They also have hands on activity's for kids as well and i believe some days are free you will just have to check in to that.
