Thank you to Capt. Joe and Sonia for making a fun and gorgeous day on the water even better by teaching us all about the history and eco system of the 10,000 islands that we got to see and touch! Top shelf! Mark & Valerie

Though getting from the Hilton site to the protected 10,000 island area was more than dicey (it was very windy and choppy), the experience was definitely worth it... Anthony was very knowledgeable of the history and population of the 10,000 islands, and unfortunately we did not see any manatees, but the dolphin population and antics certainly made up for it......

Marco Island Water Sports was conveniently located near the Marco Island Marriott. We parasailed and rode wave runners. My favorite was the parasailing. There were ten people to a boat and the two man crew efficiently rotated us through the equipment to spend our time in the air. This was the most fun and there was no problem getting off... More

We saw a lot of dolphins and some sea turtles. Anthony, our tour guide, was very knowledgeable, and excellent tour guide. It was an fun mix of riding... More

This was our second time on the wave runner tour of the 10,000 islands and can't wait to do it again next year. This tour is amazing!! The guides not only know the "hot spots" to see animals, we saw manatee and dolphins, but are also very knowledgeable about the wildlife and mangroves. I would highly recommend this tour to... More

I took our 8 year old daughter on the 10,000 Island, dolphin, manatee and shelling excursion. It was the best part of trip. Capt. Brady was very energetic and friendly. First mate Brian was also very nice and made every effort to make sure we saw plenty of dolphins and had time to watch them play. I highly recommend the... More

My husband and I went on the Wave Runner tour on May 8th and we both agreed it was the best part of our vacation and well worth the $175 (we shared one jet ski). Capt. Tory did an excellent job training all of the drivers (not that it was difficult to drive, but there were a couple people who... More

Amazing! The wildlife sightings and informative nature facts provided by the tour guide made for an extremely interesting trip. Well worth the money! We saw a herd of manatees, dolphins, went through mangroves and saw some of the 10,000 islands

It was my first time parasailing and like most people I am excited with a little anxiety, but the staff that operate the attraction helped me to feel comfortable right away and it was a great first time experience. The company goes above and beyond to educate you on what to expect and how to prepare yourself for take off... More
