Consisting of two parts, this tour is for the whole family and a great introduction to the area. First off, enjoy a boating tour to search for dolphins, manatees, raptors, wading birds, sea birds and shore birds on a boating tour. Then explore an uninhabited barrier island beach strewn with sea shells where you can collect shells, sand dollars and other treasures. You'll be brought into the 10,000 Islands Wildlife Refuge for a tour of the area led by a Florida Master Naturalist. Depending on the season, you can expect to see manatees, dolphins, sea turtles, bald eagles, ospreys, herons, egrets, pelicans, rosette spoonbills, as well as, many species of fish and shorebirds.
Marco Island is the largest and the westernmost of the 10,000 Islands. You'll spend time exploring and shelling on one of the other 9,999 Islands!
