Cruise Naples’ mangrove-lined waters on a private eco boat tour with an island stop, wildlife watching, snacks, and room for up to five guests.

About this tour

Set out from Naples for a private eco boat trip through Southwest Florida’s lively coastal waters, with an island stop along the way. On this 165-minute Naples eco boat tour, watch the mangroves and channels for blue herons, roseate spoonbills, egrets, and wintering ospreys. Bottlenose dolphins often follow the boat, and manatees may appear close by; deer are sometimes spotted in shallow water near the mangroves.

Your group rides aboard a 22-foot open motorboat with cushioned seating for up to five guests. A local guide and U.S.C.G.-licensed captain lead the outing, while shade, life vests, water, sugar-free sodas, and small snacks help keep the ride comfortable. Bring personal snacks or drinks to store in the cooler, and connect your music to the Bluetooth radio. Dogs are welcome, too.

Meet the captain at the pavilion by the park restrooms at the end of Danford Street, then walk together to the boat. Choose this Naples eco boat tour for a relaxed, private way to take in the region’s wildlife and waterways; reserve your group’s trip and enjoy the coast at an easy pace.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.92 from 38 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Naples
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.9. Top 32% in Naples means it ranks in the top 32% of tours in Naples by this score.
