What To Expect
This tour offers free photos from May-November!!! Hop aboard our small passenger vessel for an intimate snorkel with the Florida Manatee! We take you through scenic King's Bay in Crystal River, Florida in search of the wild Florida Manatee. We specialize in family oriented small group and private manatee snorkeling tours. Upon arrival, you will be introduced to your in-water tour guide who will lead you to your boat and take photos every step of the way! During the boat ride out, our in-water guide and captain educate guests on the proper way to snorkel with the protected wildlife and ensure a fun and safe experience for all ages! Once we find a manatee somewhere in our 600-acre Bay, we exit the boat and snorkel with the manatee. Our guide leads guests to the manatees and takes in-water photos throughout the entire tour. You are more than welcome to bring your own camera equipment or avoid the headache and allow your in-water guide to capture memories to last a lifetime!

5.00It's about a 3 hour tour. Great experience. Our boat captain Evan and tour guide Mandy really made this an unforgettable excursion. We got to swim up close and personal with several manatees, including a baby. The wetsuits really keep you from getting cold but bring towels for when you get out of the water as then you might be cold. Mandy and Evan provided us with hot chocolate so that warmed us up pretty quickly. I am so glad I decided to go in the water with my granddaughter. I would highly recommend this tour (small group) and our guides Evan and Mandy.
Swam with Mother Manatee and pup! Friendly staff!
