What You'll Get
Manitees -- the large, aquatic herbivore -- should not be confused with the “Man-In-Tees” -- the world-record holder for most T-shirts worn at once. Observe a shirtless species in its native habitat with today’s Groupon for a Manatee Eco-Tour at Double R’s Fishing and Tours Company. Choose from the following options:
• $17 for One Child Ticket (a $35 value)
• $27 for One Adult Ticket (a $55 value)
Children under 3 are admitted free. Double R’s Fishing and Tours Company offers landlubbers a seafaring excursion through the heart of the Everglades and Ten Thousand Islands estuaries during the two-and-a-half hour Manatee Eco-Tour. Hoist anchor from the Port of the Islands marina aboard a 32-foot catamaran piloted by local captains. Sponge-like brains soak up knowledge about native wildlife and history while eyes and ears peel themselves, hoping for glimpses of migrating manatees. Other animal inhabitants of the largest mangrove jungle in the United States include alligators, dolphins and several species of birds, from bald eagles to the more follicly-flowing osprey.
Reviews
TripAdvisors give Double R’s Manatee Tours an average of 3.5 owl eyes.
- We had an excellent tour seeing manatees, gators, dolphins and numerous birds. Our captain and guide ensured that we had ample opportunity to see what we had hoped to see and knew where we were most likely to see the species that most interested us. Best of all, they were particularly sensitive to avoid any harassment of the federally endangered manatees. – oly-eco-traveler
