Summary: We didn’t get to see any manatees due to the high winds and small craft advisory in the Gulf but we had a great time in the mangroves. Saw lots of different species of birds and even some jumping mullet fish and a spider crab. Kinsey was a great guide. We’d do it again and definitely recommend it!
