5.00Do not hesitate! Book this! So much fun! Andy was a fantastic guide! The boats are easy to drive. The scenery is spectacular. You will get splashed but not drenched and you’ll dry quickly. We saw dolphins, a shark and a tarpon along with birds. We would definitely do this again!

5.00Love the part where we shell at an island. Andrew did a great job finding dolphins. My husband drove right by a sea turtle and had to swerve from hitting him, but exciting.
Fun afternoon with Backwater Adventures

5.00We had such a great time taking the Backwater adventure tour. It’s truly a unique experience. The boats are super fun and give the opportunity to see the 10,000 in a different way. Our tour guide Devon was great, very friendly and navigated us well in the water. I highly recommend this tour. Just note that you will get wet so dress accordingly!
Great Fun

5.00Andrew was amazing. We had a massive “Karen” in our group who legit treated him and everyone in our group like crap! He handled it like a champ. Spent extra time showing up A dolphin family at the end.
Highly recommend
