About this experience
(Price shown is a group price and not per adult - absolutely no extra/hidden fees.) Enjoy a private 2h45min long Sightseeing/ Eco Tour on the Mangroveman Charters. South West Florida has a vibrant ecosystem, and a variety of birds can be often viewed including blue herons, roseate spoonbills, and egrets. In the wintertime, ospreys are often seen nesting on the channel markers. Mammals like bottlenose dolphins and manatees can be spotted, usually very close to the boat. Dolphins love to follow the vessel and play in its wake. Sometimes you can even encounter deer jumping in the shallow water areas close to the mangroves.
Dogs can be brought too. Contact us to let us know - we should be listed in the contact details. But for small dogs, you do not need any approval at all.
