Boca Raton?
Hello,
We are staying in the Waldorf Astoria in Boca Raton for the first 5 days of our holiday. Hubby is at a conference there so it will just be myself and 17 month old son. Just wondering if anyone had been and had recommendations for things to do while we're there? Thanks |

We have stayed close by at Deerfield Beach and it really is a lovely beach. There used to be a lot of fit mummies buggy walking in the mornings.

We went to the gumbo limbo nature center in Boca Raton
It's a voluntary organisation that rescues sea turtles. It's not massive but you can walk around the tanks with a buggy and talk to the conservationists there are fish tanks and lots of rescued turtles . It has a gift shop and some giant turtle models he could climb all over outside! Gumbo Limbo Nature Center North Ocean Blvd Boca Raton Fl 33432 |

thank you! Gumbo Limbo is on our list, he really likes turtles so i think it will be a big hit!
We were looking at the water parks but they all seem to close the weekend before we get there |

It was lovely I wish I could post pics but I'm useless on here !
The conservationists love their work and they are happy to explain everything, it was quiet when we went and we had our own personal guide! There's a huge tank with fish and eels in swimming round a wreck. The turtle pools were so clean and the water really blue , it was a lovely day out for us plus it was near Christmas so they had the gift shop all twinkling with fairy lights and a tree. |

Five minutes north is Delray Beach. One of my favourite places in Florida. Perfect amount of small beach town vibe with larger city amenities like restaurants. And of course a great beach!
