Sea Turtle Nesting Season
May to Oct if you are at beach, sunset and later, you might get lucky. Watch but, do NOT disturb.

Cereus Cactus blooms
There are some unimpressive cactus, like plants growing up sable palms in the yard and around the city. if you are here in summer and are out past sunset, look for the blooms. They only last one night, but are quite impressive.

Bioluminescence in the Indian River Lagoon
Summertime kayaking at night, best with no moon. Every movement causes water to light up with plankton that glow.
