Great way to get on the water and experience nature! - Took this tour with my husband and our four teenage kids. We all had a lot of fun and saw so much wildlife! Julie is incredibly knowledgeable about the area, as well as the wide variety of plants and animals we encountered. We were fortunate to see some rarely-spotted birds, and even some tiny bioluminescent jellyfish! Highly recommend this tour!!

A pleasant amble around the river - An enjoyable leisurely amble around the river, whilst the host pointed out the various wildlife and shared her local knowledge. Saw some mating sting rays and dolphins close up.

A better way to see Tarpon Springs - The weather was cooperative, and Julie our guide was knowledgeable and excellent with managing our small group of 6 (ourselves and 2 other couples). The parking area was great as was the private launch area. We saw the sponge docks on the water away from the tourist crowds as well as abundant aquatic life. The mangrove areas were quiet and the power boats at a minimum as this was a Tuesday morning excursion. Learning was also achieved as a result of the experience of our guide Julie.
