WHAT OUR GUESTS HAVE TO SAY...
"Peaceful tour with dolphins, birds and beautiful views! This dolphin and manatee tour was one of our favorite activities. The shaded boat made it so comfortable, and we saw dolphins, a manatee, and more birds than I can count—ospreys, ibises, and herons. My daughter loved identifying the birds, and the guide was fantastic at pointing them out. The whole experience felt peaceful and personal, with gorgeous views of the water all around us."
