About This Tour
Discover a different side of Miami on this family-friendly shared wildlife cruise that blends nature, exploration, and time on the water. Cruise through Biscayne Bay with opportunities to spot dolphins and manatees before arriving at Raccoon Island, where guests step ashore for a optional guided island walk to observe the raccoons and explore the natural surroundings. Guests who prefer to relax can enjoy time in the shallow, clear waters with a refreshing swim stop while the boat remains anchored nearby for easy access to your belongings and onboard amenities. On the return cruise, take in scenic views of Indian Creek Island, Miami’s famous “Billionaire Bunker.” It’s the perfect mix of wildlife, sightseeing, swimming, and relaxing on the water.
