Begin your small-group tour with a leisurely powerboat ride through the park with your guide. The boat is limited to six passengers and features comfortable seating and a large, stable platform for great bird watching and photo opportunities.
After, explore the beautiful Ten Thousand Islands on an interpretive nature tour. Learn about the area’s rich heritage and culture, as well as its unique ecosystems, as your guide points out surrounding wildlife such as manatees, dolphins, sea turtles, bald eagles, herons, pelicans, alligators and numerous species of fish and shore birds.
Many species in the area are seasonal and inhabit various areas in different environmental conditions, so the tour will adapt according to the season. You are encouraged to bring your own lunch and refreshments to enjoy on the boat.

This is a top-notch educational journey in the Everglades Area, ideal for all ages… from little ones up to grandparents. Restricting to only six guests, it’s a personal eco-adventure. Every day brings something new in the Everglades and the 10,000 Islands, as such we aim to be as flexible and adaptable as possible. The tour could/would encompass a little bird watching, photography activities, wandering through tidal pools, collecting shells on a secluded beach, delving into one of the 10,000 Islands and/or seine netting for aquatic life on a beach. The initial segment of the experience involves a guided boat eco tour in pursuit of the region’s abundant wildlife. The secondary segment is a guided interpretive walk on a secluded barrier island to explore the island’s beaches, tidal pools and inter-tidal zones.
- You will need to access the boat by ladder. With enough notice, you can load from a floating dock. Please advise in the ‘Special Requirements’ field at the time of booking if you require this option.
