Spend several hours on Seahorse Key, a 165 acre island located in the heart of the Cedar Keys National Wildlife Refuge. The trip begins on the R/V Discovery, a 42-ft custom-built research vessel. Enjoy views of wildlife, including birds, dolphins, and sea turtles on the 20 minute trip to Seahorse Key. Once at Seahorse Key, we'll have lunch followed by tours of the historic lighthouse and cemetery, visits the marine laboratory, or go on a guided walk along the beach. Or simply feel free to wander and enjoy the spectacular beauty. Bring binoculars if you have them: the birds will be nesting! If you've got time, plan on spending the night in Cedar Key and explore the area.
The trip is suitable of people of all ages and capacities.
Departure point is from Cedar Key Florida. Departure time: approximately 11:30 a.m. from Cedar Key. Multiple trips may be necessary depending on numbers.
We will be ordering boxed lunches from a local caf� in Cedar Key. The cost is ~$12 per boxed lunch.
