At Banana Bay Tour Company, we encounter more dolphins on this tour than on any other. You'll experience an enchanting wildlife wonderland, with views of nesting osprey, wood storks, egrets, pelicans and heron. Make sure you remember your camera because, on this tour, you'll have the best chance of viewing one of the endangered species that call these waters home. After a solid storm, the beaches of Southwest Florida are fluttered with many shells. Our captains have been in Fort Myers and Cape Coral long enough to know where the best shelling locations are. From watching fireworks on the 4th of July on the water to Christmas boat parades.

A favorite watering hole for Captain Julius, Boathouse is located on the Caloosahatchee River and is a great spot to enjoy some seafood and a cocktail while the boats go by. Unfortunately, Boathouse got hit pretty hard by Hurricane Ian, and while they aren't up and running yet, once they are, that'll be the first place Julius recommends. We have a couple of fun ideas to make your specialty cruise as memorable as possible. If you're lucky enough to be staying at the Cape Coral Westin at Tarpon Point, they offer sunset and dolphin cruises, and a boat taxi to Ft Myers Beach from Tarpon Point Marina.
