The Gulfarium welcomes rescued manatees to Emerald Coast
The Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park is welcoming two new arrivals. The aquarium, located on Okaloosa Island, recently announced that two rescued manatees were brought to the newly renovated manatee habitat. Their names are Lil Joe and Inigo.
The manatees coming to Northwest Florida is the culmination of a three-year vision that began in 2022, when Patrick Berry, CEO of the Gulfarium, first spoke with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service about creating a haven dedicated to nurturing manatees in need of long-term care.
County expects causeway seawall repairs to be complete by March
If you have driven over Navarre Beach Bridge at any point since November, you may have noticed an ongoing construction project at the causeway seawall.
According to assistant county engineer John Studstill, the project is an emergency repair to reinforce the seawall on the causeway.
