Itinerary and highlights
Step aboard M/V Wildside, our 32-foot shaded power catamaran, for a relaxing and immersive cruise through Cocoa Beach’s Thousand Islands, one of Florida’s most biodiverse estuaries.
We’ll ease into the calm waters of the Banana River Lagoon and wind through the maze of mangrove islands. This manatee-protected, no-wake zone is a haven for wildlife, offering incredible chances to see dolphins, manatees, and native birds like osprey, herons, and roseate spoonbills.
Cruising at a slow, eco-friendly pace, your mate will share fun facts and local insights about the area’s ecosystem, wildlife, and history. You’ll learn as you explore — a perfect mix of relaxation and discovery.
The cruise lasts 2 hours and includes comfortable, shaded seating and complimentary soda and water. Feel free to bring your own snacks or drinks to enjoy along the way.
After an unforgettable journey through this peaceful island maze, we’ll return to the dock with memories and photos of a true Florida eco-adventure
