We had a great experience with our guide Ethan and the captain GQ. Even though we knew that it wasn’t really the manatee season, they did everything to find them! We found a mama and baby & had the best time swimming with them. During the boat tour Ethan & GQ told us a lot about the scenery and all the animals that lived there. We loved it! Thanks again and if we come back we’d ask for them again!

She capturied a lot of gret memorable photos and videos for my family and I. Rhonda was a great captain and pointed out some of the manatees before we even got into the water! I highly recommend doing this especially with Faith and Rhonda! Thank you ladies for such an amazing experience!
