We are located in Crystal River, which has the largest concentration of manatees worldwide. About 600 manatees visit the Crystal River springs each winter. During your tour, you’ll swim and snorkel with the manatees and experience their beauty up close. Our tours are perfect for people of all ages. We provide you with your wetsuit, mask, and snorkel. It’ll be a one-of-a-kind experience you’ll never forget.
Manatees are one of the most incredible, and elusive, creatures found on Florida’s Nature Coast. Manatees spend most of the year lounging and hunting for seagrass in the Gulf of Mexico and flock to our crystal clear springs to stay toasty during the winter months.
Florida’s springs remain a constant 72 degrees year-round. This is just right for manatees. And nobody knows how to locate these amazing creatures better than our expert guides.
- We allow infants aboard but we don’t recommend children under 3 get in water. Fitting infants with wetsuits is challenging so they are not available. Not to worry we have ways to entertain the little ones aboard .
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.
