Dolphin and Manatee magic - Really fun trip, we saw dolphins and manatees and pelicans and other birds, including a nursing mother and baby! And learned a bit about the Indian River and that the dolphins are smaller versions of the Atlantic dolphins.

Wonderful trip!! - Our trip was wonderful! We had a group of five adults and five kids ranging in ages from 6 to 13. The boat was very comfortable and spacious and shaded, and we took a leisurely ride out and back and saw countless dolphins, a giant group of stingrays, many jellyfish, a few manatees, pelican, diving for fish, and other birds. We learned so much from the captains (Jack & Paul) about the history of the area and information about the ecology of the area & the animals themselves. The trip was very relaxed and really fun. I would definitely go again!!
