Amazing! We went out with Captain Cephas and he was super cool and knowledgeable. We had been to three sister springs on our own a few years back and wasn’t a good experience. But this time was great! We were here a little late in the season so it was harder to see them, but we did and we saw a mama and baby too! We will be back again! Thank you Captain again for an amazing trip and memories 💙❤️

I had an incredible experience on this tour swimming with the manatees. Our captain was friendly and knowledgeable, helping us locate the manatees and giving us ample time to swim with these beautiful animals. I highly recommend this tour to all visiting the area.

I have been coming to the Weeki Wachee area for 50 years and never have been here. WOW! IT WAS AMAZING!! Such a beautiful place. They have a shuttle or it's a 10 min walk back to the Springs. Definitely glad we went.
We received a friendly welcome from two dive instructors who explained everything we needed to know. "Please don't make any sudden movements" when the manatee swims towards you. These animals aren't aggressive; they're peaceful creatures that live in this river. We saw several swimming right in front of us, under us, and beside us.
