Immerse in an ECO-Tour and Experience Southwest Florida Islands by Boat

“Captain Brian Holaway is well versed in the intricacies of our unmatched locale. He can guide to and through a multitude of out-of-the way tidal creeks, bayous, keys and islands. More important is his passionate interest and respect for the region. With unique insights from his many explorations and his studies, not only does he identify the birds and wildlife that inhabit our semi-tropical watery land, but he explains their interconnectedness to their environment and each other. In addition, he shares the fascinating history of rugged people who came long before us: Florida Native Indians, the Calusa, the Spanish, the Cubans, early homesteaders, and the wisdom evident in the growth of their culture.

You will come away with great enjoyment and a new understanding of this beautiful place and its history.”

Beautiful Day On The Water





















Pat and her daughter Jen relaxed and explored with me for a whole day. We had a blast! The morning light was inspiring through the lens of the camera. Jen enjoyed exploring off the beaten path and capturing the morning light with her camera. Pat and Jen are always ready for an adventure, so what better to explore than a sandbar that had just formed 48 hours before. Then it was off to secret spot number 11 where we spent the afternoon with nothing but solitude and seashells.  Capt. Brian

Cameras and Shells
















Learning from other people is something I relish about my profession. I enjoyed the company of Larry and Pam on a recent outing. Larry was a wealth of knowledge about photography and cameras. (thank you for letting me shoot with your camera) I learned a lot about the next camera I plan on purchasing.  Pam enjoyed shooting with her camera as well as shelling on the beach.  Thank you both for an educational camera experience on the water.

The Maine Crew












It is always a fun adventure with Lauren and her lively crew. The weather was perfect and we all walked a long way on the beach looking for treasures. Time flew by, but not without finding many treasures by the sea. Many thanks to Lauren and crew for a fun day on the water. Capt. Brian

Carolina Shellers













Brooke and Kate can roll with the tide or whatever comes their way. We started off by exploring the flats where the morning light was beautiful. They enjoyed observing many live shells and learning about the ecosystems of the shell world. Next it was off to secret spot number 11. Kate found a few of her favorite shells and a few more. Brooke found a king's crown and a cone shell. She was excited to find both. I enjoyed the conversations from both as we searched for treasures by the sea. 
Thank you Brooke and Kate!   Capt. Brian
