Tarpon Bay Explorers reported that its Breakfast Cruises and the Touch Tanks are back to normal operations. In light of the pandemic, it had put the cruises on hold and the tank were switched to hands-off aquarium presentations, where visitors could not handle the wildlife.
The cruises are held on Wednesdays at 8:30 a.m. The first hour of the tour is a boat ride around the bay in pursuit of wildlife, like birds, manatees and dolphins. A continental-style breakfast is provided, including fresh doughnuts from Bailey’s General Store, plus coffee, tea and orange juice. The last half hour is spent at the touch tanks, where attendees get a hands-on experience learning about wildlife that lives on the bottom of the bay.
