About This Adventure

Get ready for a chill eco-tour around Miami's bay! We're talking dolphins, manatees, raccoons, birds, seagrass, islands, and sandbars – it's all on the agenda.

First things first, we'll leave the city noise behind and set sail on the calm waters of the bay. Keep those peepers peeled for some playful dolphins splashing around and maybe catch a glimpse of some chill manatees gliding beneath us.

Now, as we cruise through those mangrove forests, don't be surprised if you spot some curious raccoons poking around or catch sight of colorful birds doing their thing up in the sky. We'll make pit stops at secluded islands where you can kick back, relax, and soak in the peaceful vibes.

Oh, and we can't forget about the sandbars! Picture yourself chilling on a serene sandbar, dipping your toes in the clear water, and learning about how you can help protect the bay.

Throughout the tour, take it all in – the laid-back atmosphere, the stunning natural beauty – it's what Miami's all about. Whether you're a nature lover or just looking for a relaxing day on the water, this eco-tour is gonna be a blast. So grab your shades and let's get cruisin'!
