Ecotourism on Florida's Space Coast - Titusville Florida
Eco Tortoise

The beauty and diversity of Titusville's unique ecosystems are much too well kept secrets.
Well, "the secret is out!"
Please enjoy a virtual ecotourism visit:

Our Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge features 140,000 acres with over 1000 plant and 500 animal species, including 16 threatened or endangered mammals. It is one of the world's premier birding sites.

The adjacent Canaveral National Seashore features 24 miles of unspoiled Atlantic beach.   Watch a sea turtle lay her eggs.

Our county wide Environmentally Endangered Lands purchasing program has set aside a variety of beautiful ecosystems including the Enchanted Forest Sanctuary.

Not many places offer such unique variety. In fact, our National areas have been ranked eleventh in the world among Ecotourist destinations that "give the most enriching experience." The ranking was produced from a survey by Weissmann Travel Reports (WTR). WTR is an encyclopedia of travel used primarily by professionals (a consumer version is available on AOL). [We were ranked alongside the finest ecotourism destinations in Rwanda, Botswana, Ecuador, Wyoming, Antarctica, Australia, India, Manitoba, Costa Rica and Lapland.]

When you have enjoyed your virtual visit, we invite you to come and experience the real thing. The folks at any of the sites below will be happy to help you with your ecotourism planning.

Here are some "outdoor" activities that ecotourists enjoy:
