From Chokoloskee, take a two-hour boat trip into the Ten Thousand Islands with a naturalist guide and no more than five other guests. Look for dolphins, birds, manatees, and other wildlife, and learn about the Everglades’ ecology and history. Captains including Don, Dan, Ray, and Glenn have led trips, but guide assignments can vary.
“Our tour Guide Don was great--totally knowledgeable about the area, the flora and the fauna. He was pleasant, fun, patient as well. We saw all kinds of birds, nests, and Calusa shell formations--centuries old! The 2 highlights were seeing a huge flock of white pelicans resting on the beach of one of the islands. I've seen them at Ding Darling but never as close as we came without disturbing them and having dolphins visiting us and performing! Worth the price of the trip! Again, I've seen dolphins before but never so close. Don led us in singing Flipper's them song and a great time was had by all--Paula, Chatham, MA”
