What is a naturalist?

Go Outside and Play

Getting Started

My name is Gibby Conrad. I moved from New Orleans to Apalachicola, Florida in 1997 to start an ecotour business. For ten years, I ran tours of the Apalachicola estuary and every trip was a unique experience. I met many interesting people and was privileged to witness Nature in all her glory every day. Like all of our ecosystems, the Apalachicola estuary is facing many daunting challenges.  I hope that I was able to raise awareness of the fragile nature of this very important system so that it will continue to thrive in the future.

In order to offer better education and career opportunities for my family, we moved to Tallahassee and I shut down my tour business. Since the move I have been searching for a way to continue my career as an ecotour guide. I believe that I have found the answer. Through this website, I hope to introduce many more people to the beauty and importance of the ecosystems in the Florida panhandle. I am excited about exploring these sites and sharing my experiences with you.  I'd like to hear from you, drop me a line.
