We went on the three hour kayak tour. It was fantastic! We saw a bunch of manatees, a few dolphins, flamingos and many other birds. We watched a spectacular sunset and when it got very dark we were able to see the bioluminescence, which was amazing. Our tour guide was Ashton. He was energetic, enthusiastic and very knowledgeable. He explained many things about the area and each of the animals. I highly recommend this tour and ask for Ashton to be your guide!

Experience everything the wildlife refuge has to offer with three distinct experiences packed into one three-hour tour! Launch your kayak in the daylight and surround yourself with Florida’s most-loved endangered species, West Indian Manatees! Sit back while the gentle giants roll, sniff, and nuzzle all around you. Dolphins are also active this time of day as they wrangle their dinner in the adjacent cove. Next, head out to Bird Island, a federally protected rookery, to watch hundreds of birds soar in overhead. Ibis, herons, egrets, pelicans, cormorants, and roseate spoonbills and more all glide in their flocks to nest for the night. Be lulled into serenity by the gently rocking kayak as the sun descends for the night in the pinks, oranges, and reds of sunset. Finally, the tour culminates in the season’s bioluminescent experience, whether it be summer bioluminescence, winter comb jelly bioluminescence, or a star-studded moonlit sky.
