Our Most Popular Activity Near Naples, FL
Jet Ski Dolphin Tours, also known as the “Back Bay Tour,” are by far the most popular and best-valued activity we have to offer. We only book our Naples Jet Ski tours on Bonita Beach with a maximum of six watercraft per tour to ensure a more intimate experience. We can accommodate much larger private groups if necessary, just contact us for more information. The Dolphin Tour is the best of both worlds! Reserve early!
The tour begins with free time in the Gulf of Mexico. This enables the operator to get comfortable with the equipment. Next, we make our way north into Estero Bay. Once in the bay, your guide will take you through and around the mangrove islands of the bay.
You may encounter dolphin, manatee, rays, and a variety of bird species including osprey and the American bald eagle.
