Spend a refreshing afternoon in the salty breeze, as you:

-Catch a glimpse of frolicking dolphins as they roam the creeks and the harbor
-Troll the ocean floor, pull crab pots, and add to our touch tank on board
-Sneak close up views of wading and shore birds, such as Great Blue Herons, Snowy Egrets, Eastern Brown Pelicans, and Least Terns
