The Dolphin Explorer
Step aboard The Dolphin Explorer for one of the most immersive wildlife experiences on Marco Island. Operated by the 10,000 Island Dolphin Study, this 47-foot catamaran carries guests on a three-hour eco-tour led by trained marine naturalists. You’ll cruise through the estuaries and barrier islands in search of bottlenose dolphins—each of which the team tracks by name using photo-identification—and enjoy added experiences such as shelling on pristine beaches and spotting birds of prey.
Whether you’re a family, nature enthusiast, or simply looking to connect with the marine world, The Dolphin Explorer offers a dynamic mixture of education and adventure. Bring your camera and your sense of wonder—the crew’s knowledge and genuine enthusiasm for dolphin behavior, birdlife and the Florida back-waters make this more than just a tour; it’s a nature-lab on the water.
