There are not many nature centers that are housed in a home that is on the National Register of Historic Places but that’s exactly what the Sandoway House Nature Center is.
The structure was built in 1936 and located just across from the Atlantic Ocean in Delray Beach. There are shark feedings, nature walks, educational programs, astronomy nights, summer camp and other special events.
Upstairs is a private shell collection that is the largest (10,000 museum quality shells) in Southeast Florida, a Florida Reptile room and another room devoted to historic Delray. And to get a better view of the ocean, you can step out on the observation deck!
