Still recovering from damage inflicted by Hurricane Ian in September 2022, the “Ding” Darling Visitor & Education Center will close temporarily for repairs to the air conditioning system and other improvements starting April 1. The tentative reopening date is April 6, but could be extended. The “Ding” Darling Visitor & Education Center normally opens from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday through Thursday. It holds the Refuge Nature Store and hands-on displays, plus distributes information and advice about visiting the refuge.
