"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our family of five (with children aged 20, 18, and 6) had an absolutely incredible time on the Marine Discovery Boat Tour out of New Smyrna, Florida! Captain George and Naturalist Ted made the experience both fun and educational. We were thrilled to see manatees and dolphins up close, and we learned so much about oysters and a wide variety of birds along the way. Ted and George ensured a safe and engaging environment for everyone, making it a memorable adventure for all ages. Highly recommend this tour for families looking to explore and learn about the local marine life!"
"What a gem! The Marine Discovery Center is the perfect NSB attraction for families. They’ve got touch tank for kids and the dolphin cruise was loved by all 3 of my kids (ages 10, 7, 3). We saw manatees, birds, dolphins and turtles on our dolphin cruise! Definitely carve time in your vacation for this!"
"I am so pleasantly surprised!! We enjoyed the sunset tour. We brought a cooler, and my 6 year old and fiancé and my self loved it!! Connie was our captain and Lisa was our guide. They were phenomenal hosts. We saw dolphins, manatees, hundreds of birds! We fell in love with FL because of this trip!!! The next time we are in town we will go again."
"I highly recommend anything that the Marine Discovery Center offers, especially the Forever Explorers program. Each month has a unique theme. The creativity of every outing brings unexpected surprises. They never cease to amaze me. If you're an adult, love learning and having fun with like-minded folks this place is for you Find Forever Explores on their website under Community Programs. See you out there."
"We went on a moonlight boat tour, and we had an absolute blast! The captain and first mate were an absolute joy. The first mate was a wealth of knowledge and the captain was genuinely having a blast with the rest of us! I'd highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn about the lagoon and enjoy the wildlife along the way! It was especially beautiful during the full moon. An absolutely great resource for homeschooled children to learn as well."
