Enjoy the Tour: Discovering the wild

During this time we travel to different islands where we walk on uninhabited islands with beautiful white sand looking for conch, starfish, sea urchins, sand dollars, and unique shells, discovering an incredible variety of wildlife.

As we travel to the islands, oftentimes, we are lucky enough to move along with groups of dolphins and manatees enjoying their lives in freedom. This tour is very relaxing, and you will never feel tired. We love to call this tour "SPA DAY FOR THE BRAIN!!!"
