Nature-Dolphin Boat Tours

Seek out Dolphins, Manatees, Turtles, Fish and more!

Nature Dolphin Tours

Cruise around Monkey Island. Seek out dolphins and manatees. Look for otters, birds, turtles, fish, manatee, and many other species of marine life, something different every trip! See the many beautiful birds from blue herons, osprey, ibis to the occasional bald eagle on Bird island!

Meet Ralph, Ebony, and Emily, the famous spider monkeys that inhabit Monkey Island. Monkey Island was accidentally created in the 1960s when developer "Furgy” Furgason had dirt piled around submerged rocks in the Homosassa River to warn boaters of the hazard. He later added a lighthouse and brought over mischievous monkeys from Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park, turning the tiny island into Monkey Island.

Captain Ron knew right where to go! We saw manatees. Even a bald eagle fishing. We visited Bird Island and saw nests of Great Blue Herons! We got a nice close up view of Monkey Island!

Amazing, spectacular, exciting, fun and very memorable!!

Capt Ron pointed out the various marine life along the way and found a pod of dolphins to play with us on the boat. Spectacular!

Captain Rons the best

We got to see a pod of dolphins playing and jumping out of the water. Truly unforgettable.
