Eco-Tour River Cruise
Go on a cruise down the St. Lucie River aboard the River Lily, an eco-tour boat. Owned and run by Captain Dana and First Mate Deena Wade, there are various packages on offer, like the Early Bird Sunset Cruise, the Jungle Cruise and others. It is a great way to relax and watch the natural flora and fauna of the area, as well as alligators, colorful birds and maybe even sea turtles.
Dolphin Watch Tours

The Indian River Lagoon is home to hundreds of wild dolphins, and you can see these beautiful mammals in their natural habitat on these boat tours. They usually take up to six people per trip, and each tour lasts for roughly two hours. First they will take you through the Fort Pierce Inlet State Park, where you can experience the stunning natural beauty of Florida, as well as get a close look at the wildlife. The tour will then proceed towards the Jack Island Wildlife Preserve, for more such wonderful sights.
