Travel reviews
4.3 / 5 - 6 reviews

Description

Duration : 2.5 hours
Schedule : 7 a.m.
Season : Year-round
Departing from : The Plantation on Crystal River Adventure Center

Manatee tours are offered right on the site of the Plantation on Crystal River hotel complex. Take a boat out in search of manatees and then get in the water to snorkel among them.

Snorkeling is done in wetsuits to make the interaction as silent as possible and avoid disturbing the manatees.

That way they are more inclined to approach and get close.

Seeing manatees up this close and being able to swim with these gentle giants is sure to be one of the highlights of your trip!

A typical Florida souvenir at Crystal River

(Translated by Google) Swimming with the manatees, a great experience: lots of manatees seen with and without the guide. Do not hesitate to snorkel beforehand, just to familiarize yourself with breathing underwater.

Activity in their natural environment and with respect for the animal

(Translated by Google) Good experience especially the clear river. the manatees, you have to look for them by boat so it can take time. We swam with 2. Plan your go pro if possible. There are quite a few swimmers nearby but you can see them well.

Very nice experience
