"We had a wonderful time renting a double kayak. All employees were informative and helpful to get us on our first kayaking journey. The Three Sisters Springs was a easy, short kayak ride away and a great place to snorkel considering it had such crystal clear waters. Unfortunately we didn't get to..." see any manatees since they had already moved out to deeper waters. The highlight of our adventure was paddling out to the bay where we stumbled across a pod of dolphins fishing. The kayaks allowed us the opportunity to follow them for a bit throughout the bay and gave us an up close view of nature that you wouldn't be able to experience on an manatee tour boat.

"We were hopeful that we could see some manatee, but since it was late in the season we decided not to be disappointed if it didn't happen. We chose Manatee Fun because of the TripAdvisor status and Captain Broderick did not let us down! He knew exactly where to go to find the few manatee still hangi..."ng out in Crystal River. We had a wonderful experience swimming with a mommy and her baby. Then we went to another area and swam with a couple of huge manatees. The Captain told us exactly what to do (and not to do) to make the most of the encounter. It was an awesome experience. We also had fun kayaking, fishing and relaxing on the boat while Captain Broderick entertained us with poetry, jokes and stories. He also had snacks for us. His boat was comfortable and fun. We had a perfect day and would definitely do this again!

"Lots of information and directions provided. Free parking.
We got underway and learned a lot about both the manatees and the social history of the area that affected their life around Crystal River.
The river was gorgeous. We had a great snorkeling stop off around the springs.
Swimming with..." the manatees was a once in a lifetime experience. I felt fully prepared and coached by Cpt Stacey. We learned how to safely play with the manatees until we got tired (the manatees didn't).
Can't wait to come back for a winter tour!
