    Itinerary

    If you've ever dreamed of spotting a manatee in its natural habitat, you're in luck! Our Manatee Discovery Tour offers a unique kayaking experience that allows you to witness these majestic creatures up close. Led by our experienced naturalists, these small group guided eco-tours last for 2 hours and take place in the beautiful Anna Maria Island/Bradenton area, where manatees are frequently seen.
