Over the past 10 years my company has developed a reputation for customer care, cleanliness, friendliness, trust, timeliness, and dedication unmatched by any of the others in the manatee snorkel tour business.
Since it takes some time to fit and don wetsuits we ask that you please arrive 30 minutes before departure.
Swim with the Manatees in the pristine, clear waters of the
Crystal River on the Nature Coast of Florida. This area, is home to the largest concentration of manatees in the world.
It is not necessary to be an experienced diver to enjoy swimming with the manatees.
Your comfort and safety is our number one priority on all of our tours. If you prefer not to enter the water you can stay topside to view the manatees.

Read our Rules of Engagement
In keeping with our commitment to protect and preserve our manatees and their sanctuary we have issued some "Rules of Engagement". Our Captains will enforce these rules which are written to ensure that future generations will be able to enjoy the majestic and gentle manatee. Please read these rules because we believe they will make yours and your fellow guests encounter much more enjoyable.
Capt Mike Birns has produced a "Float With the Manatees" video. In it, he describes proper interaction when in the water with the Manatees. Watch this video on You Tube
