We give you private, guided flats boat eco-tours for Vero Beach/ Hutchinson Island, Florida.
We focus on providing nature lovers and nature photographers with a private, relaxing eco adventure to be remembered for a lifetime.
Below are the most frequently asked eco-tour questions.
Where is the eco tour location? You will explore Round Island Riverside Park. Round Island Park is one of the most beautiful, fertile and biologically diverse areas along the Treasure Coast of Florida. During your eco-tour we will explore the waters around the park as well as the many spoil islands in the area.
What types of animals can we see? The Round Island Eco Tour is probably the best bird watching/manatee watching location on the Treasure Coast of Florida. There are usually many manatees and dolphins frolicking in the waters in and around this park.
It is also a birdwatcher's paradise. All kinds of wading birds such as roseate spoonbills, great blue herons, great white egrets, snowy egrets, black and yellow crowned night herons and many shore bird species frequent this area. You can also see bald eagles, ospreys, cooper's hawks, peregrine falcons, cormorants, pelicans and much, much more....
