Dolphin & Manatee Tour – New Smyrna Beach
Slow Cruise. Wild Encounters. Pure Coastal Magic.
Forget the theme parks. This is the real Florida. Our Dolphin & Manatee Tour is a calm-water cruise through the Indian River Lagoon, one of the most biodiverse estuaries in North America—and home to two of its most beloved residents.
Where Wildlife Steals the Show
This isn’t just a boat ride. It’s a front-row seat to the best kind of reality show—one with leaping dolphins, slow-gliding manatees, and the occasional bald eagle overhead.
We cruise slowly and stay shallow, giving you a chance to see these gentle giants up close, without disturbing their natural rhythm. Bring your camera, bring your kids, bring your curiosity. This trip is as peaceful as it is wild.
