Swim with Crystal River Manatees in Their Natural Habitat
Experience Florida’s most unforgettable wildlife adventure as you swim alongside gentle manatees in their natural habitat.
Our most popular tour departs from the beautiful Monkey Island Riverside Resort and serves both Crystal River and Homosassa Springs customers. Our captains will select the best available area based on recent manatee activity, water clarity, weather conditions, and guest experience.
Unlike large, crowded tours, we specialize in small groups, creating a more personal and memorable experience for every guest.
Located in Citrus County, Florida, just over an hour from Tampa and less than two hours from Orlando, you’ll discover why this area is known as the Manatee Capital of the World.
Flexible Departure Times
Choose from multiple daily departure times, ” See Calendar for Daily Departures”
All departure times can provide excellent manatee encounters. Our captains monitor conditions daily and will guide your group to the best available location to maximize your experience.
Each tour lasts approximately 3 hours, giving you plenty of time to explore, snorkel, and create unforgettable memories with Florida’s gentle giants.
