Maybe you love dolphins, but your REAL goal is to see a manatee!
This is the 4th of 25 Ways to Enjoy Southwest Florida which can be downloaded for FREE!
It is truly an unforgettable experience to witness these unique and magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. Seeing a manatee is probably one of the harder to come by Fort Myers attractions that there is. The best bet for making friends with the manatees is to take an Eco-Tour and see them up close and personal.
An Eco-Tour or Nature tour is typically a guided tour on canoes or kayaks. You will paddle through lush mangroves, where wildlife and natural beauty abounds! Educated guides will teach you about manatees, their history, habitat, and habits. Manatees are slow and gentle creatures, and will often be easily sighted from your canoe or kayak.
Here are some suggestions for these types of tours:
- GAEA Guides – Guided Kayak Nature Tours
- Adventures in Paradise
- Captiva Kayak Company & Wildside Adventures
