Description

Get the manatees all to yourself on our Private Manatee Tour. Although all of our tours have few people, this one allows you to experience the manatees with only your own friends and family, making it even more comfortable and enjoyable. We are a proud member of the Save the Manatee Club Guardian Guide Program, dedicated to protecting the manatees as we swim alongside them and promoting responsible eco-tourism.

Begin your tour by cruising down the Indian River to Crystal River, taking in the scenery and watching out for any dolphins, river otters, bald eagles, and other birds that you might see. Once your tour guide spots manatees, it’s time to get in the water! Swim right alongside the manatees, watching them face-to-face in their own natural habitat. With an in-water guide swimming with you, your experience will be as tranquil and incredible as you’ve always imagined. If there’s still time left, you’ll also get to swim in Three Sisters Spring, a beautiful nature area with crystal clear water. Want to remember your incredible adventure for years to come? Don’t forget to check out the pictures taken by your in-water guide that are available for purchase!
