Overview

Quotes Logo 2-Hour Jungle Tour at Prehistoric Preserve Site in Fort Pierce takes people back in time. It's an adventure that starts near the busy Fort Pierce inlet, in a hidden jungle made by nature. This isn't a typical tour; it's a special place that's hard to get to with motorboats, so it's quiet and peaceful.

Imagine gliding through tunnels made of trees, hearing only nature. Then, you'll go into an open waterway with shallow sandbars full of sea creatures. You might see big herons and little songbirds, all living their lives in nature. This tour, led by a guide, explores a prehistoric site and a protected mangrove jungle.

People will paddle through calm waters, surrounded by thick jungle. They will see birds flying above and hiding in the trees. The kayaks will go through tunnels of trees that barely fit the boats. This jungle is special because boats can't get in due to shallow water and narrow paths. It's a quiet place where you can hear nature. As people leave the mangroves, they can check out shallow sandbars with marine life like stingrays and crabs. They can also watch birds like ibises and herons. Quotes Logo
