I went on the wildlife sightseeing and shelling tour. We saw dolphins, went to a little island with awesome shells, and our captain Marco was very informative and entertaining - he made sure we did everything we wanted (shells and dolphins)! This was an amazing activity to do with family and I definitely recommend.

Our family of 7 did a two hour private tour with Marco and Colleen. They were the best, treated us like life long friends. Very knowledgeable and informative. We got to see osprey nests with babies, manatees, dolphins and did some shelling. Dolphins provided a spectacular show for us. It was an AWESOME trip and HIGHLY recommend.

Captain Colleen was fantastic! So knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife, she was very happy to help answer our questions. She also helped us pick out some shells and showed us interesting stuff including a shredded horse shoe crab shell. We saw lots of dolphins, she knew them by name, due to their distinctive dorsal fin. They followed us in the wake of our boat,so we got to see them really closely. We were also really lucky to have a private tour as no-one else had booked at the time we picked. She was great with our young kids,highly recommend, such a memorable trip!

Colleen is so knowledgeable and loves answering questions...If you have a curious mind about Nature in this area I suggest you go on this tour!
