If you’re looking for the best small-group (6 people!) manatee snorkeling tour, look no further. Let our amazing guides show you the wonder and beauty of the majestic Florida Manatee
EXPERIENCE:
Snorkel with the manatees on a guided, small group (up to 6 people) tour from U.S. Coast Guard licensed captains. Tours are conducted daily in the beautiful Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge. Get up close and personal with these amazing mammals and learn about our ecosystem and their habitat.
Unlike many tours, your guide will actually swim with you and your group to ensure that you have a memorable experience that is both exhilarating for you and safe for the manatee. Your guide will also be your personal photographer and videographer so you can relax and enjoy the scenery.
Much like elephants on an African safari, manatees are protected in the refuge and may not be approached within certain boundaries. Remember this is their home you are visiting, so you cannot guarantee an encounter with these amazing animals.
Peak encounter season is November through March when the water temperatures lure these gentle mammals to the warm, spring-fed waters of the Crystal River. While the water temperature is a consistent 72 degrees, the air temperatures during these times vary, but they will dip consistently into the 30’s-50’s so you can get a little chilly once you exit the water.
