About the Book

Explore the undiscovered adventures on Florida waterways where the journey is the destination. A Florida boat tour is a short ride, usually two hours or less, where you and your fellow passengers learn something new about Florida history, ecology or wildlife from a spirited and helpful guide while gliding across supple, sun filled waters. You may see dolphins, manatees, turtles, alligators, and more. Cruise past famous and infamous homes, Indian mounds, and ancient cypress trees where diving birds sit on branches spreading their wings to let them dry. A boat tour is a floating adventure with friends.
