WATER! This is a mom-and-pop kayak tour company that will give you a 15% discount for mentioning the Munn-Lindenberg wedding when you book! (Please thank the owner, Diana.) We recommend the guided tours through the mangroves, but they also have sunset tours or you can just rent a kayak and do your own thing. We saw manatees, dolphins, a bunch of cool birds, conch, and other fish. It was super cool and fun and didn't require any experience or skills. A great idea for a Saturday activity!
DRINKING! Bust out your inner party animal and get ready to have some fun! Our fun cruises are perfect for smaller groups. On this tour, we'll make at least one bar stop while we pedal, drink, sing, and enjoy the gorgeous sights of Fort Myers Beach. We might even see some dolphins and other creatures along the way! $44/person for a 2-hour tour. All trips are BYOB - bring as much as you like! Beer, Wine, Liquor, Food and more! We will supply ice, cups, and coolers. We do have room for an extra cooler or two as well. Departure times are 1:00, 3:00, 5:00 or 7:30 from the Salty Sam's Marina in Fort Myers Beach. While on the bay, you will pop open your favorite beverage and get to pedaling! Don't worry, pedaling is as easy or as hard as you want to make it - and we have a gas engine that we can turn on at any time. We will take you to some of the most fun dockside bars that Fort Myers has to offer. We will also get you special discounts at each bar we go to!

ANIMALS! The Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve is over 3,500 acres of wetland ecosystem with a Boardwalk trail and Interpretive Center. The cypress slough catches and slowly filters rainwater on its way towards Estero Bay. A myriad of animals like otters, alligators, turtles, wading birds, and more live at the Slough year-round. Others, like migrating birds and butterflies, use the Slough as a feeding area or a winter home. The Friends : The Friends of Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve is a not-for-profit advocacy and support organization committed to preserving, protecting and promoting Six Mile Cypress Slough Preserve for future generations.
MANATEES! (but probably not in June) Manatee Park is a non-captive warm water refuge for the Florida Manatee. Optimum viewing months are late December, January, and February when the gulf temperature is below 68F. Manatees are generally not present during the warm summer months.
