Welcome to Real Adventure |
| | Most of us are familiar with the sawgrass prairies, the cypress swamps and the sloughs of the Everglades, where the stars of the show are alligators and airboats. Unfamiliar to most of us though, is a different section of the Everglades we call the Ten Thousand Islands. Created by freshwater flowing from the river of grass and mixing with the saltwater of the Gulf of Mexico, this unique mangrove estuary offers adventurers some of the best wildlife photography, education, fun and excitement that the Glades have to offer. |
| Whether its the thrill of dolphin watching or an enchanting encounter with a manatee, the Ten Thousand Islands holds something for everyone. Bird watching is at its best with over 50 species inhabiting our treelines. Who could resist the hunt for sand dollars, conchs and tiny treasures on the beaches of the barrier islands? Springtime signals the return of endangered sea turtles, stingrays, sharks and unexpected sea-life. Kaykers can paddle their way into unspoiled beauty; and now after years of research, you can explore the backcountry of the everglades on one of our hiking expeditions. | |
NOT JUST ANOTHER TOURIST ATTRACTION
Since 2000, we've been offering a refreshing alternative from commercialized sightseeing tours. Our mission is to take you off the beaten path, exploring and discovering nature as it happens.
Our adventures are small and personalized, leaving little if no impact on Florida's fragile environment. We specialize in educating our customers about the diverse ecosystems we explore, while promoting physical activity and a healthy lifestyle. |
"If you've been looking for something more than an overcrowded sightseeing tour and want something more of an authentic adventure, where wildlife, exploration, education, fun and exictement offer something for everyone, I hope you'll join me for a memorable adventure into two of the last frontiers in South Florida...The 10,000 Islands and the Everglades."
