  Florida Keys Unaffected by Oil Spill
 

While everyone continues to closely monitor the oil spill in the northern Gulf of Mexico, we’re relieved and happy to report that the Florida Keys and Dolphin Research Center remain oil free. Unfortunately, the overwhelming focus on the oil spill has created false impressions in the minds of thousands of potential visitors who mistakenly believe that the Keys are already drastically impacted with oil.

This is simply not true! We’re doing our best to counteract the negative images, and so are tourism partners in the Florida Keys, as well as throughout the state. That’s why each week, you’ll see freshly-taken photographs posted on the DRC blog. The official Florida Keys website is also putting up new video footage every week. You can see for yourself that our beautiful islands are open with all the fun-filled activities taking place. It’s a perfect time to visit. To see the most recent videos, visit http://www.fla-keys.com!

  Jax Video Now Available!
 

In 2008, a young, orphaned dolphin named Jax joined the DRC family and swam straight into our hearts. The story of his rescue, rehabilitation and journey to DRC is told in a newly produced video Jax – A Survivor’s Tail. You’ll love learning about this special guy. To watch the trailer, click here. The video is available for purchase through our online Gift Shop. Proceeds help support Jax’s continued care! Click here to order.
