About Just Add Water & Sun

Just Add Water & Sun operates private boat tours through the 10,000 Islands region of Everglades National Park near Naples, Florida. Visitors board Jaybird II, a custom-designed vessel accommodating up to six passengers, to search for Atlantic bottlenose dolphins, West Indian manatees, alligators, and seasonal resident birds in mangrove forests and open water. Tours stop at barrier islands accessible only by boat, where guests can shell, swim, picnic, or relax. The boat carries complimentary ice water, and visitors may bring coolers with food and beverages. Jaybird II features wheelchair accessibility and comfortable seating. Excursions last three, four, or five hours depending on the tour selected. Families with children of various ages, groups seeking wildlife viewing, and those interested in collecting shells find these trips suitable. Tours explore the natural habitat at a leisurely pace without the noise of commercial airboat operations.
