Paddle Cocoa Beach for dolphins and manatees on kayak or SUP, with wildlife lessons at Banana River Manatee Refuge.
“Riley was very knowledgeable about the animal species around and the required habitat for the manatees due to the colder temperatures. We did get to see a few manatees as well as some dolphins not even 5 foot from our kayaks. The girls liked the rope swing break but did love seeing the manatees and dolphins.”
Watch dolphins and manatees on a small Cocoa Beach catamaran, then cruise into sunset colors over the Space Coast.

We even got to see a rocket launch while on the water. I highly recommend this company and this tour! You won't regret it!!!”
