Birding, Dolphin and Photo Tours - 2 hrs
Daily Tours - 8:30, 11:00, 1:30, 4:00 Everglades Area Tours' Everglades National Park and Marco Island Birding, Wildlife and Photo Tours are a wonderful adventure for the whole family and a great introduction to the area.
![]() The entire Everglades area, including Everglades National Park, is a wonderful place for birding. With over 300 species of birds throughout the year, it is the only Park that was established for its biological and ecological considerations rather than it geological features. However, most of the 1.5 million acres in the Park are flooded and essentially out of reach for the average birder and photographers. Everglades Area Tours can you take you to areas seldom reach by others.
![]() Not only will you be introduced to the great birding and wildlife in the area by your naturalists guide, you will also learn about the Everglades eco-systems, it rich heritage and long history. We limit each experience to six guests, so you can expect an intimate experience in the wilderness. In comfortable captain's style seating and with a cooler for your drinks, you will be safely brought deep into the 10,000 Islands for a interpretive tour of the area. Depending on the season, you can expect to encounter manatees, dolphins, sea turtles, bald eagles, ospreys, herons, egrets, pelicans, alligators, rosette spoonbills, as well as, numerous species of fish and shore birds. ![]() Our tours are never "canned", so each tour is different. The area's wildlife move around in order to exist in their world and so must we. Many species are seasonal and inhabit different areas in different environmental conditions, so too, we must be able to adapt. Bring your snacks, favorite drinks, hats, sunglasses and have a great time!! CLICK HERE for a recent article about this tour in the Marco Review
Take Your Kids Fishing - 2 hr Intro to Fishing
Daily Tours @ 9:00 from Marco Island (Goodland) The outdoors is healthy for families and fishing is an activity that everyone can share. Kids excited about the outdoors and fishing gravitate to these healthy activities and tend not to be as attracted to the bad influences as other kids. However, we have found that the typical fishing charter is not the best introduction to the sport. The time spent on the boat can simply be too long for beginners, particularly for the youngsters. While most fishing guides enjoy fishing kids and families, they tend to focus more on the experienced angler. This is totally understandable. ![]() Everglades Area Tours is dedicated to education and so is this two-hour fishing experience. Our fishing guides are trained naturalists, as well as, experienced fishing guides so there is always an opportunity for learning. This tour is for families, youngsters and beginners with a single objective … "To inspire enthusiasm in the sport and the outdoor world as a whole". All bait, licenses and gear are included. We can take up to six family members on the trip, although, all cannot be fishing at the same time. (It is about the kids!). The cost is $250. Please bring whatever you wish to eat or drink, but do not forget your camera! ![]()
