| Although the brochure for Oleta River State Park mentions that dolphins and manatees are often seen in the area, we weren't lucky enough to spot any during our visit in late December. We did spot other interesting animals such as blue heron birds, moon jellyfish, checkered puffer fish, and a small sting ray. | ||||

| During our three
hour kayaking adventure, I captured a series of short video clips with my
Canon 300 HS compact camera inside a Canon WP-DC41 waterproof case. The case
allowed me to get some great underwater footage of the moon jellyfish and
checkered puffer fish.
