- 8092 Marys Fish Camp Rd - Learn about Florida’s most beloved marine mammal- manatees, on our manatee season guided 100% clear kayak eco tours! Once you’re checked in, we give basic paddle instructions including boat safety, kayaking etiquette, and teach you paddling safety with manatees or your manatee manners! The paddle will last about 2 hours depending on the speed of our group and any wildlife we may spot along the way! This is a wildlife experience and we cannot guarantee that we will see wildlife on our tours- half the fun is learning how to spot the signs and clues that wildlife like manatees leave behind for us to find!
The first portion of the paddle is through the quiet and calm coastal waters where we paddle past a Bald Eagle’s nest with a chance to see them nesting October-May (tide permitting). We then paddle up the clear waters of the Weeki Wachee, Florida’s most iconic and popular freshwater spring for recreation! Weekends and holidays can be busy! Anticipate a great workout as current and wind are sometimes stronger November-March. Our guides will be sure to snap your pics and give some awesome facts about the area at our several picturesque stopping points! We stay in our kayaks.

Explore one of Florida’s most scenic waterways from a 100% clear kayak! Grab your window seat to a view like no other with the opportunity to hopefully spot a manatee or two or even 30 on our coldest mornings during manatee season! We foster a commitment to education, stewardship and responsible ecotourism so learn about manatees from our team of Guardian Guides, the only company on the Weeki Wachee River certified by Save the Manatees Club!
Riding in a clear kayak has the advantage of greater visibility of manatees and their underwater world! These large aquatic mammals call the Weeki Wachee River + surrounding waterways home all year long but during cooler months more manatees use the Weeki Wachee and surrounding waterways as their warm water winter habitat (November 14-March 31st).
