About Us

Manatee Sightseeing Eco Adventures began business in beautiful Naples, Florida in 1999. Captain Barry and Carol started See Manatees with one boat and a lot of hard work.

Now rebranded to Manatee Sightseeing & Wildlife Adventures, and with 12 boats, the company is currently the only manatee sightseeing tour company in Southwest Florida that sees manatees every day, all year, in their natural habitat!

Our most popular tour, the 90-minute manatee sightseeing tour, will leave you breathless when you see how close the manatees come to the boat.

All captains are licensed, insured, first aid and CPR certified.

The florida state is full of dubious "wildlife sanctuaries" which are in effect petting zoos. This is definitely not one of them. We were on holiday from the uk and captain John took us on an amazing 90 minute tour of the local mangroves and palatial docks. We saw a manatee, countless alligators and beautiful birds. John was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife, mangrove habitat and dangers to this precious ecosystem. He also had some great dad jokes!! A really passionate naturalist who made our daughter\'s 10th birthday really special. Well worth a trip

Great trip with captain Sr. As soon as we left the dock we had seen a few gators and found manatees quickly after. He kept us laughing too. Water. Canals is very calm so no worries about seasickness either. Thanks again

Had a wonderful relaxing time. We got to see more manatee then I expected, wild n free. We happen to come at the perfect time when the water was coming back in for them to feed. Captain John was Absolutely wonderful. Perfect sense of humor. He has great knowledge on the manatees, dolphins, alligators n islands around. A must stop along the Everglades stop.
