OUR MANATEE ADVENTURES LAST FOR 3 HOURS, THE LONGEST IN THE AREA
We are situated in Crystal River, home to the highest population of manatees globally. Each winter, around 600 manatees migrate to the springs of Crystal River. You will have the opportunity to swim and snorkel amongst the manatees, getting up close to these majestic creatures during your tour. Our tours are ideal for participants of all age groups. We supply the wetsuit, mask, and snorkel. This will be a unique adventure you’ll cherish forever.
Manatees, fascinating and rare creatures, reside along Florida’s Nature Coast. They spend a lot of their time relaxing and searching for seagrass in the Gulf of Mexico and saunter to our sparkling clear springs to stay warm during the winter.
Florida’s springs maintain a steady 72-degree temperature all year round - a fitting environment for manatees. Our experienced guides are unrivaled when it comes to tracking down these astounding creatures.
