  • Manatee Lagoon does not allow any pets on the property. We do, however, allow trained service animals on site.
  • Feeding wildlife is prohibited.
  • For security purposes, luggage, large or rolling backpacks and duffel bags are not permitted at Manatee Lagoon. Unfortunately, the center is not able to provide on-site storage at this time. Please help us keep our center safe for all visitors. Thank you for your understanding.
