TropicBird Ecotours

TropicBird Ecotours Private, naturalist-led ecotours of the 10,000 Islands under sail

We go softly – just the gurgle of water at our stern and a gentle breeze across the deck as our 34 foot sailing catamaran, TropicBird slips through the Gulf of Mexico in Florida’s pristine 10,000 Islands – seeing, hearing and experiencing nature as intended, and in complete comfort on your private luxury, master naturalist led tour. Our incredible shoal draft – we can operate in as little as 18”,

means we can explore areas inaccessible to larger and indeed many much smaller craft. We only do one tour a day which means we have time to linger, and we do not sell individual places so it’s your private charter. We can therefore tailor our itinerary and activities to your specific interests and party’s composition. Everything is included in your full-day private tour including, lunch, snacks and refreshments. Tropicbird is perfect for families, groups of friends or that very special occasion for a couple. At TropicBird Ecotours we are dedicated
to providing our guests with the highest level of amenities, service and interpretive content. We strive to exceed your expectations and enhancing our guests appreciation of South West Florida’s biodiversity and natural heritage and, whilst and complying with best ecotourism practice

We are the only ecotour business offering private naturalist-led ecotours of the ten Thousand Islands under sail.

Amazingly Tropicbird survived Irma almost unscathed but sadly the docks were badly damaged

We are grateful to have survived Irma's eye passing right over our Naples home but as Tropicbird was at ground zero for the hurricane first coming ashore we are fearful she's gone. It'll probably be a few days before we're allowed on Goodland to look.

Great day in the 10,000 Islands yesterday: roseate spoonbills, dolphins and even a mother and calf manatee right in front of us as we were wading through the water.

We are seeing lots of migratory white pelicans at the moment on TropicBird trips in to the 10,000 Islands - such magnificent birds with a wingspan of almost 10 ft, and a quite a sight as they float by in neat white flotillas. They're temporary winter vistors from western inland lakes.

We had a great day out last weekend and saw mating dolphins and our first white pelicans of the season.
