Adventure Details
Embark on a 3-hour VIP Manatee Tour where you can fulfill your dream of swimming with these gentle creatures in their natural habitat. With a maximum of 6 people per tour, the experience is semi-private and intimate, allowing for a close-up encounter with the manatees. The tour is only available during the best season for manatee sightings, from November 15 to March 15, in the early mornings of winter. As a member of the Save the Manatee Club Guardian Guide Program, the tour is dedicated to protecting the manatees and promoting responsible eco-tourism. The adventure begins with a scenic cruise down the Indian River to Crystal River, where you may spot dolphins, river otters, bald eagles, and other wildlife. Once manatees are spotted, you will have the opportunity to swim alongside them with an in-water guide to ensure a tranquil and incredible experience. If time allows, you can also swim in Three Sisters Spring, a stunning nature area with crystal clear water. At the end of the tour, you will receive a manatee-shaped thumb drive with pictures taken by your guide, so you can cherish the memories for years to come. Included in the tour are masks, snorkels, wetsuits, and snorkel vests for your comfort and safety in the water. You will also receive education on how to interact with the manatees respectfully. Additionally, fleece-lined coats and hand warmers are provided for after the swim to keep you warm. Don't forget to bring your bathing suit, towel, warm clothes, and camera to capture the unforgettable experience of swimming with manatees. - Tour available November 15 to March 15 - Maximum of 6 people per tour for a semi-private experience - Education on how to interact with manatees respectfully - Masks, snorkels, wetsuits, and snorkel vests provided - Pictures from the swim with manatees included on a USB drive
