About
In the cooler months we generally venture into the North fork of the St. Sebastian River in search of Manatees in their known wintering grounds. In the warmer months, we generally choose the south prong of the river to spot alligators, gopher tortoises and a great diversity of wildlife for more of a jungle cruise vibe.
