Info
The South Florida Museum, located in Bradenton, Florida, is a natural and cultural history museum specializing in the history of Florida's gulf coast. It houses exhibits highlighting Florida history from the prehistoric to the present. The Museum also features regularly changing exhibits in the East Gallery, as well as in other small galleries throughout the first and second floors of the Museum.
The Museum also includes the Bishop Planetarium and the Parker Manatee Aquarium, the former home of Snooty the manatee (born in 1948, Snooty was the oldest known manatee in the world at the time of his death). The Bishop Planetarium, which was opened in the mid-1960s, has since been entirely remodeled and received a significant technical upgrading in October 2013.
