Make close contact with these gentle and lovable creatures in one of the largest winter gathering sites for manatees in Florida. Observe manatees as they swim all around you with some of them curious enough to come close to your kayak. In the summer month we paddle up to the spring head where you have a chance to jump into the crystal clear spring to cool off and to explore the aquatic life living in the spring.
Our tour groups are limited to a maximum of 10 people, ensuring a personalized and high-quality experience with a strong emphasis on safety. Our professionally trained guides are passionate about sharing their knowledge, making your trip an unforgettable and inspiring adventure. Enjoy energizing trail snacks during your kayak tour.
