Embark on a captivating Sea Life Encounter Cruise with our eco-friendly Sarasota Bay boat tours. Our two-hour journey through Sarasota & Roberts Bays offers an educational & interactive experience for all ages.
Guided by an experienced marine biologist, this eco boat tour on Sarasota Bay showcases the area’s diverse wildlife, including the Florida manatee and bottlenose dolphins. Explore, on foot, nature of an uninhabited island to discover the area’s local flora and fauna. This eco boat tour will also navigate around bird rookery islands perfect for bird watching including pelicans, herons, ibis and egrets. The highlight of this trip is the collection of a sample of marine life using a trawl net to discover critters living at the bottom of Sarasota Bay.
Our specially designed 45-foot pontoon boats, Explorer V & Explorer VI, ensure a comfortable and safe adventure on your eco tour in Sarasota. These vessels are equipped with essential amenities such as onboard restrooms, covered seating, and refreshments available for purchase.
Absolutely! Our tours are designed to be family-friendly with educational content suitable for all ages.
While we cannot guarantee wildlife sightings as these are wild animals, our cruise route is known for frequent sightings of dolphins and occasionally manatees. Keep your cameras ready and enjoy the natural beauty of Sarasota Bay.
The Sea Life Encounter Cruise operates in light rain, but in the case of severe weather, we may cancel. We offer rescheduling or refunds due to severe weather.
