Our U.S. Coast Guard Licensed captains will take you on a journey through this lush landscape and let you experience first hand the natural beauty we often take for granted. Tours begin in the Crystal River National Wildlife refuge, and the points of interest are adjusted seasonally to ensure the best chance at a glimpse of the wildlife and fauna the Nature Coast is famous for. While the Manatee tends to be the "star" of the show and draws worldwide interest, the area is host to many other species including otters, bald eagles, swallowtail kites and more than 200 other species of birds that have been spotted here.
What to Expect
Manatee sightings can be year round; however, are more likely in the colder months. You can expect to see many variety of waterfowl, the ever present osprey and even dolphins join us in the bay from time to time! Most sightings are close enough for a small digital camera or cell phone; however, zoom lenses are recommended for better quality photographs. The captain will be accommodating to special requests at his/her sole discretion. We cannot guarantee any specific species will be spotted on a trip, but we will work our hardest to find your special moment.
