Capt. Colt was great. He has extensive knowledge of the wild life and the different types of shells. You can tell he loves his job.
You will be safely brought deep into the 10,000 Islands Wildlife Refuge for a two-hour interpretive tour of the area led by a Florida Master Naturalist. Depending on the season, you can expect to encounter manatees, dolphins, sea turtles, bald eagles, ospreys, herons, egrets, pelicans, rosette spoonbills, as well as, numerous species of fish and shore birds. You will visit an uninhabited barrier island where you can collect shells, sand dollars and other treasures! Note: June through October, we suggest the morning experiences due to the weather.

We ended up being the only couple on the tour so we felt like we had a unique opportunity to hear and see everything. Our tour guide was awesome and very knowledgeable about the 10,000 islands, birds and shells. We saw plenty of dolphins and birds but only one manatee due to the time of year. We had a great time!

Totally fun and pretty place. Super-terrific guide (Captn. Ryan). Saw dolphins indeed! Lovely beach full of fun shells and cool sea birds. Recommend 100%. Remember water bottle.

What a terrific day on the water. We genuinely had dolphins swimming and jumping with our boat. So cool! Went to a gorgeous island with shells and birds. The captains are great people. Highly recommend.

We went on the 9:30 tour with Captain Ed and he was absolutely amazing! A Florida native whose knowledge and passion for what he does is evident! Definitely worth it!!!
