Swim with manatees in the Homosassa River on a semi-private tour. Enjoy a heated and enclosed boat, snorkeling gear, and a guide to help you spot the gentle giants.

 

EXPERIENCE:

Swim with the manatees in the spring-fed Homosassa River on a 4-hour tour from Citrus County. Enjoy a unique experience with a Coast Guard Certified Master Captain and an in-water chaperone, educator, and photographer.

Start your adventure at a full-service tour facility, where you will be suited up in wet suits and introduced to your Captain and in-water swim guide. On board your vessel, while headed to the springs, ensure you understand the rules of engagement, watch an instructional video, and receive tips for your snorkel tour to make the most of your day.

Be taught the ins and outs of ‘passive interaction’ to ensure that the animals enjoy the experience as much as you do. Submerge yourself in the manatee’s world. Finish your adventure by viewing your guide’s photos back at the facility and be sure to visit the one-of-a-kind gift shop.

Be treated like royalty on a luxury pontoon and see the river in style. This semi-private pontoon seats up to six and offers you a comfortable, more personalized 4-hour excursion.

Enjoy snacks, coffee, tea, hot cocoa, and water on board. Get a photo package available at the end of your tour for an additional charge.
