Best Diving Center - I have no other words to describe the experience with American Pro Diving Center but Wonderful. I met them snorkeling with manatees, then I became Open Water certified and now I do recreational diving. The staff and instructors are professional, knowledgeable and friendly. The facilities and equipment are ideal for the practice of these aquatic activities.

Lots of Manatees! - Saw a lot of manatees. John was an excellent guide and Geri was a great captain. We saw manatees less than 50 yards from the dock. John did a great job direction us to the manatees and explaining what we were seeing.

Fabulous time - Everything was so great what a fantastic staff they have. Our tour guides Austin and Rodney were fabulous. We saw manatees and a dolphin. They were both so knowledgeable and able to answer all our questions. Couldn’t have had a better time.

Great day for being on the water and swimming with the manatees - Water clarity was murky and a little difficult to see the manatees. We did get to see an and swim with a mother and its calf , and another manatee. We saw dolphins and turtles. The staff was very knowledgeable. It was a great day , with great weather!

A Florida only experience - Being bumped by the Manatee. And that it was a mother and her calf. Given the opportunity would go again.

Fair experience. - We were all aboard after viewing the video about the rules of our swim with the manatees. However, when we got to the only spot where they were swimming, there were several other boats full of people in the same area. In order to actually see them, we had to swim up to them, crowd them and there was lots of noise. Actual time spent swimming with them was very limited-we were hurried along by our boat crew so that other boats could have viewing time. Disappointing. Could’ve gotten just as close in a kayak.
