Clear Kayak Tour and Optional Swim with Manatees in Crystal River

• Professional, experienced guides. Tours are led by trained adult guides with local and wildlife knowledge.

• Educational and wildlife-focused

• Beginner and family-friendly

• Duration: Approximately 2.5–3 hours

• Manatee season: November 15–March 31. For the best chance of seeing manatees, choose a morning tour when overnight temperatures are below 70°F. Sightings can be more challenging on warmer days.

• Wetsuits are not provided. We do not offer in-water swim guides or traditional manatee swim tours.

This is a kayak-focused experience. When conditions allow, we may stop at a safe, shallow area where you can exit your kayak and enter the water independently to observe manatees.

We are environmentalists first. We do not condone crowding manatees or placing large groups around one animal. If a respectful swim opportunity naturally presents itself, you are welcome to enjoy it. Otherwise, we observe wildlife from the kayak.

The manatees and their well-being always come first.
