Manatee Discovery Anna Maria Island

Overview

If you've ever wanted to witness the wonder of manatees in their natural habitat, our Manatee Discovery Tour is the perfect choice for you. What sets our activity apart is the opportunity to embark on a kayaking journey specifically designed to encounter these magnificent creatures. Led by our experienced naturalists, our small group guided tours last for 1.5 hours and take place in the AMI/Bradenton area, where manatees are commonly spotted. As you explore the serene waters, keep your eyes peeled for not only manatees, but also dolphins, ospreys, and other local wildlife that may make an appearance. It's an extraordinary experience, so come join us and create memories that will last a lifetime.

Super awesome tour! Although we didn’t see any manatees, we were able to see so many different bird and fish species. In addition to the beautiful scenery, we were able to stand in the bay and collect seashells. Our tour guide was awesome and explained everything along the way, even before the tour started. Definitely worth the money!

Tommy our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about all the beautiful wildlife and sealife. Helped us with our horrendous kanoe handling but we made it! I felt we received the royal treatment. The manatees were laying low due to the chillier waters but we counted 13 of a water fowl I can't remember the name. Help me out here Tommy. I would highly recommend this excursion. A not to miss experience.
