Private Eco Boat Trip out of Naples Bay, FL and the Gulf, island stop incl.

Overview
(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.

What To Expect
1
Mangroveman Charters
We will visit the northern part of the 10,000 Islands and Gordon Pass.

Keewaydin Island
We stop at a beautiful, serene, secluded part of the long Keewaydin Island beach, which stretches into the Horizon. The sandy white beach offers a lot of beautiful intact seashells, which we can collect. We can also go swimming or explore some of the hidden off-the-beaten-path trails. Often there is interesting wildlife to see like turtles, lizards and different species of birds. A small picknick is also a possible at the beach. You can bring your own food but we do have small snacks and a variety of sodas. You can choose if you want to stay longer on the island or leave earlier to enjoy more from the viewpoint on the boat. Since this is a private trip it is up to you. You can tell the captain what you would rather like to do.
Cancellation Policy
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

We saw dolphins, lots of birds, and enjoyed the shelling beach stop. Capt. Paul ensured a smooth ride and was very knowledgeable about the area. We liked seeing the bay homes from the water side. I would book again.

A perfect private family boat trip. We saw several pods of dolphins, lots of wildlife, got to ride through the mangrove estuaries since it was high tide, found great shells at the private beach and got to cruise along and feel the wind in our faces. It was perfect for our family of 4 who love a good boat ride. Paul was a fantastic guide. He knew his way through all the estuaries and gave us fun facts along the way but otherwise let us enjoy the trip together. Highly recommend.

Our family had a fantastic time. Captain Paul was knowledgeable about the area and ecosystem. We learned a lot and laughed along the way. We saw many dolphins, enjoyed jetting through the mangrove trees and picking up shells. The highlight was a dolphin swimming along our wake on the way back to the harbor. We loved it!!!
