- Mangroveman Charters - We will visit the northern part of the 10,000 Islands and Gordon Pass.
- Keewaydin Island - We stop at a beautiful, serene, secluded part of the long Keewaydin Island beach, which stretches into the Horizon.
The sandy white beach offers a lot of beautiful intact seashells, which we can collect. We can also go swimming or explore some of the hidden off-the-beaten-path trails. Often there is interesting wildlife to see like turtles, lizards and different species of birds. A small picknick is also a possible at the beach. You can bring your own food but we do have small snacks and a variety of sodas.
You can choose if you want to stay longer on the island or leave earlier to enjoy more from the viewpoint on the boat. Since this is a private trip it is up to you. You can tell the captain what you would rather like to do.

(The price displayed is not for each individual but for the entire group - no additional or hidden costs at all.) Embark on a private 2h45min Sightseeing/ Eco Tour with Mangroveman Charters. The dynamic ecosystem of South West Florida is home to a variety of birds like blue herons, roseate spoonbills, and egrets that can be frequently observed. During the winter, it’s common to see ospreys nesting on the channel markers. Marine creatures such as bottlenose dolphins and manatees can also be sighted, often very close to the boat. Dolphins enjoy trailing the boat and frolicking in its wake. At times, you may even spot deer leaping in the shallow waters near the mangroves.
