COVID-19 Safety Precautions

We are very happy to have our eco-cruises back for the 2020 season. This year, we have new policies in place to help ensure the safety of all of our passengers while you enjoy your cruise through beautiful Rookery Bay.

  • Masks must be worn while checking in and remain on throughout the cruise except while eating or drinking
  • Temperature readings will be taken and you will not be allowed to sail if you have a reading of 100.4°F or above
  • Our equipment will be sanitized between every use
  • Shared/common surfaces will be thoroughly disinfected throughout operating hours
  • Hand sanitizer will be available for passengers
  • Any staff interacting with customers will be wearing face masks
  • Physical distancing of at least 6 feet will be observed at registration and on the docks

Click here to print out the list of precautions we are taking for our eco-cruise tours.

Led by a Coast Guard-certified captain

The Conservancy of Southwest Florida offers a unique opportunity for its members and guests to explore the beautiful area it saved more than 50 years ago. Conservancy naturalists and a Coast-Guard-certified captain will guide you through Rookery Bay aboard the Good Fortune II, a comfortable 35-passenger pontoon boat. See some of the most spectacular waterways, wading birds and perhaps even a dolphin!

*All cruises subject to weather conditions and tide.
