After viewing all the historical mansion on the bay, we will cruise to New Pass Sandbar, which is perfect spot to see lots of fish, dolphins and manatees. In the spring and summer, when the manatees come out from the rivers, there is a good chance you will get up close for a manatee encounter! As we board the boat and continue along, we can stop by New Pass Grill and Bait Shop if you need some protective sun gear or a sandwich.
