Step aboard for an intimate adventure with Crystal River’s most beloved residents—the Florida manatee. This semi-private experience is limited to just six passengers, ensuring a relaxed and personalized journey on the water.

Your U.S. Coast Guard–licensed captain and in-water guide will take you to the best spots to encounter manatees in their natural habitat. With small group sizes, you’ll have more space, more time in the water, and more opportunities for one-on-one guidance and wildlife education. We also include photos and videos on all trips.

Snorkel alongside these peaceful creatures, learn about their behaviors, and capture unforgettable memories—all while enjoying the comfort and ease of a smaller group.

Whether you’re traveling with family, friends, or looking to join a small group, this semi-private tour offers the perfect balance of privacy, adventure, and affordability.

Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge

Join us for a scenic and unforgettable boat tour through the sparkling waters of Crystal River, cruising all the way to the pristine shores of Shell Island. This eco-adventure offers a front-row seat to some of Florida’s most breathtaking wildlife and coastal beauty. As we glide through calm waters surrounded by lush mangroves and spring-fed tributaries, keep your eyes open—you’ll likely spot playful dolphins dancing in our wake, gentle manatees drifting through the seagrass, and majestic ospreys diving for fish. Scan the treetops for soaring bald eagles, and look along the shoreline for the vivid pink splash of the Roseate Spoonbill, one of Florida’s most colorful and iconic birds. Once we arrive at Shell Island, you'll have time to explore the untouched beaches, collect seashells, wade in shallow waters, or just soak in the serenity of this hidden gem. Our tours are small, personal, and guided by passionate locals who love to share the natural wonder of this special place.

Wow this experience was incredible!! Captain Mac and guide Lauren were truly the greatest tour guides I’ve ever had (for someone that travels a lot!). They were so respectful of the wildlife and we followed all of our manatee manners. It was fantastical coming nearly face to face with a majestic manatee! You can tell these guys truly love what they do and care so much about the seacows ❤️
Lovely, special tour

We had a great time with the Captain, Mac, and guide, Sarah. They are both super sweet and knowledgeable. They love the area and what they do. They were flexible with the trip and attentive to our preferences. We saw a manatee mom and baby up close and a couple of other manatees from the boat. They made sure we got to see an alligator and pointed out turtles and birds throughout the trip. Digital pictures were included!
Best morning ever with Manatees

I booked a tour with my SO for our anniversary and we had a wonderful time! Mac was so informative on any and all questions we had about our trip, and the surrounding area. From local laws to wildlife, I felt like I had lived in the area for years. He played whatever music we requested and had an open mind to any conversation we brought up. Will definitely be rebooking next anniversary. 5/5!
