Biologist Trained Crew Dolphin Watch & Snorkel

We will head out on the water to an area which provides a year round home for about 200 wild Bottlenose Dolphins. This is my moment to share the wonders of these marine mammals with you, while always operating my vessel in a manner that is safe and respectful of the dolphins and their need for space. With the right know-how I can usually find dolphins in under an hour and in calm waters. After observing the dolphins many different behaviors from the boat we will head to one of my favorite spots to snorkel with sponges, coral heads or a patch reef. I will take you to the best place with the best visibility that day. My mate will be your guide, leading you around a calm snorkeling spot and point out animals that make our ecosystem unique and answer any questions that you have.

Unique Wynwood Graffiti Golf Cart Tour
A golf-cart tour of Wynwood will give you a good understanding of the layout, magnitude, and history of the Wynwood Art District, allowing you to see hundreds of murals in all corners of the area as well as many opportunities to take pictures where you choose. When you join me on a golf cart tour of Wynwood, you will have the comfort of the ride but the immediacy that the open air provides. Even driving at a low speed, I will have time to take you to areas of Wynwood that a walking tour cannot reach and tourists are unlikely to find on their own. Wynwood is a literal magnet for artists, who use every surface available from blank fire walls to warehouses, to light poles, and leafless trees. Murals show up in parking lots, by railroad tracks, on schools, and houses, in an ever-expanding and ever-changing area. I will tell you as much as our time allows about artists both invited and not, about their techniques, and show you what some developers have done to try and preserve murals. I will show you some of the best out-of-the-way restaurants, and the spots where Wynwood people brew their own beer, and tell you about the fate of galleries in a rapidly rising real-estate market. I will do the driving and most of the talking; you will ask questions and snap pictures. Other things to note Because you will be outdoors, it is a good idea to bring a hat and wear sunscreen.
