Great ride on the river

"My wife grandchild and I went on a ride on the River from Cocoa Beach. It was a lot of fun, and the couple that runs the tour where is very helpful and very friendly. I highly recommend this trip."

Friendly and knowledgeable

"Had a great time with this group. They let us take our time viewing dolphin, manatee and lots of birds. They were very knowledgeable about bird species and the history of the area. No preset routes so you get a unique experience. Very comfortable seating."

Fabulous boat tour of Thousand Islands

"Great tour of Thousand Islands. Captain gave great information on wildlife. We saw lots of dolphin. Special treat was seeing an Osprey catch a fish and fly off with it."

A must see and do

"Anyone who visits the Space Coast should try this tour - it’s amazing! I’m a local who had never been and absolutely loved it. Took my guests too and everyone raved about the views. Guaranteed to see dolphins, manatees, birds and other wildlife. Even the boat was safe, comfortable and sturdy. Great for everyone - friends, family, kids, elderly, etc."

Wildside Tours LLC is a nature boat business providing a variety of different excursions in the beautiful Thousand Islands Nature Preserve of Cocoa Beach and the Banana River Lagoon.

Sightseeing in this area is exciting: The manatees, dolphins, and many varieties of birds exemplify nature at its finest.

Since our trips are limited to 26 persons, you will get a much more personal experience without school bus seating. We can go into the smaller channels that larger tour boats cannot access.

Practicing ethical, sustainable eco-tourism, we don’t chase, feed, or touch the animals. We do passive viewing and respect the environment.

Come explore this incredible, fragile, and dynamic eco-system only 10 miles from Port Canaveral’s port of call cruise terminals.

We really enjoyed our beautiful and informative day on Captain Andrea's boat. She was very fun, super friendly, set up the tour to our specs, and she shared great info on the wildlife and on the area. The boat was very clean and well set up. We had a great time!

This is my second boat cruise with Andrea! She always knows the perfect places to go whether you want to just cruise around, catch a sunset or hit a sandbar! Highly suggest.

Beautifull ride in the lagoon on banana river. Private boat with a lovely captain. What a great way to see some dolphin, exotic birds and manatee.

Captain Andrea took us out for a fabulous afternoon to watch a rocket launch. She took us to a great viewing spot and made the afternoon enjoyable. Her boat was clean and comfortable. We would take another trip with Captain Andrea when we're in the area in the future.

Bioluminescence Boat Tour

Enjoy bioluminescence from the comfort and convenience of a BOAT!

Private Bioluminescence Boat Tour

Experience indian river bioluminescence fully with up to five of your family and friends on our private bioluminescence boat tour.

After a summer sunset, the waters of the Indian and Banana River Lagoon come alive with a bioluminescent glow like only a few other places in the world. A dinoflagellate microscopic organism, Pyrodinium bahamense, responds to mechanical agitation by luminescing. A moving boat illuminates the water almost like glowing paint. A speeding school of mullet look like multiple underwater bottle rockets. A swimming dolphin trails glowing streamers like a comet. The summertime glowing waters of the Indian and Banana River Lagoon truly is a bucket-list experience .

Experience all of this from our 22ft boat – large enough to be seated comfortably while small enough to still be close to the water. You’ll experience the Indian River bioluminescence much more intimately than in larger pontoon boats or other water craft.

This is a private group tour with a maximum of five guests launching from the Cocoa Beach area.

Why Choose Us

Fin Expeditions takes pride in following established best practices of Ethical Ecotourism.

SMALL GROUP SIZE

We want our kayak tours to have a more intimate experience for every guest.  Large groups disrupt wildlife habitats and require loud guide communication and a less personalized approach.  Other kayak tour agencies put 40 or more people in a group. We typically limit the size of our tours to 12 guests .   

TRAINED GUIDES

At Fin Expeditions our guides are highly trained. Other kayak tour agencies may give their guides as little as 2 hours of training. Our guides receive 50+ hours of training before they are certified to lead a tour.

LOCALLY OWNED

Fin Expeditions is locally owned and our tours are run by local guides that are knowledgeable, friendly and know the area inside and out. We support our local community and efforts to conserve and restore the Indian River Lagoon.

ATTENTION TO DETAIL

We are top-rated on Tripadvisor and Google for a reason. We know what it’s like to travel and do what we can to take some of that load off our guests. Just show up and we’ll take care of the details .

BETTER EQUIPMENT

We believe by fully equipping our guests, we provide an upscale experience. We use high-end kayaks with high-back seats for your comfort. We clean and sanitize all equipment and life jackets after each use.

Daytime Photos included

Experience the difference a fin expeditions tour makes, related kayak tour, private kayak tours.
