Eco-Tour River Adventure
Embark on a journey through prehistoric landscapes with a nature cruise on the eco-tour adventure. As we navigate one of the area’s many river mouths, you and your guests will immerse yourselves in untouched nature, encountering local wildlife such as dolphins, bald eagles, ospreys, and the exciting possibility of spotting manatees. Relax in one of the comfortable lounge seats onboard, sipping on an ice-cold beverage as you cruise beneath the tree canopy.
Explore the “local hangouts” and riverside beaches, reveling in the same scenic beauty mentioned earlier. Anticipate low visibility waters along the shores and a densely packed sand and clay beach, providing a more organic and rustic backdrop compared to Destin’s scenery. This adventure is highly recommended for those who relish exploration and nature observation.
A highlight of this cruise is a visit to one of the area’s most popular waterfront dining spots, The Bay Restaurant in Santa Rosa Beach. Your captain will dock alongside the picturesque pier, allowing you and your guests to disembark at your leisure. Indulge in some of the finest local cuisine by ordering food and drinks to-go, perfect for enjoying onboard. Alternatively, take in the marvelous views from the open-air restaurant as you please.
