Enjoy a close, personal encounter with the West Indian Manatee as you snorkel with them under the guidance of a U.S. Coast Guard Licensed Captain. Our small group (no more than six guests) tours are conducted daily in the beautiful Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge. Get up close and personal with these amazing mammals and learn about the ecosystem and their habitat.
Unlike many tours, these Captains will actually swim with you and your group to ensure that you have a memorable experience. While in the water, your captain/tour guide will take high-definition photos and videos of you and your group which you will be able to view and purchase at the end of your trip.
Your price includes all snorkeling equipment (mask, snorkel, wetsuit) and complimentary coffee or hot cocoa.

Cần Quan Tâm
Upon arrival at the dive shop, guests will be fitted for wetsuits (included in price) and asked to watch a brief video from US Fish and Wildlife outlining their encounter with the manatees. The captain and guide will then take the group to the boat and embark all passengers and give a short safety brief. Once underway, the guide will further explain how to interact with the manatees once in the water and fit the guests with their masks and snorkels. While transiting to the swim areas, the captain and guide will present information about the area wildlife and what guests can expect to see during your tour. They will also answer questions and take pictures along the way. Once the vessel sights manatees, the captain will anchor the vessel and the group and guide will proceed into the water for your encounter. The guide will stay with the group the entire time, ensuring that the guests get the most out of their experience, all while taking photos and videos of your adventure!

5.00Sara, Joe, Capt.Mike were awesome! We were nervous because the weather was a bit chilly... wetsuits, jackets, were provided. The trip was great. Only 6 guests and the individual attention was amazing.

4.00Unfortunately it was warm week, so there were very few manatees in relation to how many tour boats there were. We did get to see some and had a nice swim in the beautiful spring.

3.00This tour is not like the picture shown. It was not clear water with face to face interaction. The water in the channel was so dark and murky you couldn’t see manatees. Only discolored patches in the water below you. You have to be a moderately good swimmer, too.
Fun day for all

5.00Sarah and Ron were great! We saw a manatee a couple of times and learned a lot about the crystal river area. Sarah knew all of the ways to get great pictures, kept us informed and safe with other boats. Ron (our captain) taught us more about the water, land, water temperatures. Both of them were so kind they offered great restaurant recommendations after and Ron even waited with me while my car came.
Excellent Experience

5.00I’ve done manatee tours before, but this was by far the BEST experience ever. Sarah was absolutely amazing—knowledgeable, fun, patient, and clearly passionate about what she does. She made the entire expedition feel personal and unforgettable. We had a crazy good tour from start to finish. Got up close (respectfully!) with the manatees, learned so much, and felt completely safe and cared for the whole time. Highly recommend this tour and especially Sarah. If you’re thinking about it… just book it. You won’t regret it.
