Had a great time kayaking with the manatees! My husband and I were both in the same kayak and that was tons of fun. Our guide took lots of pictures and they turned out so great. He found so many birds in the area, and we could paddle over to get a good view. He guided us to quite a few groups of manatees, and we even saw a baby (about 120 lbs!) swimming with its mother! An awesome experience!

The water near the springs was so clear we could see the sea grass at the bottom like a lawn. Josh and Chianti were great and made the whole experience even better. Josh is very knowledgeable and gave great explanations of everything around us. I particularly appreciated that he was conscious of the encounter with the manatees so as not to stress them.

Keontae was a perfect guide for us! He was just the right balance of safety, wildlife spotting and casualness with low stress paddling. The tour was well organized complete with a video about the proper way to "BE" in a kayak with manatees around you. Loading and unloading at the dock was easy. It was a cold morning with a mist on the water. Super pretty and quiet.... Manatees were curious and plentiful! Lots of up close encounters and our guide photographed everything. All we had to do was paddle, steer and watch! Highly recommend!
