Clear Kayak Tour of Tarpon Springs | Manatee Season

Clear Kayak Tour of Tarpon Springs | Manatee Season

Overview

Adventure through Tarpon Springs in your 100% clear kayak! You’ll enjoy a tranquil paddle through the bayous of Tarpon Springs. You’ll launch from the Tarpon Springs Yacht Club, kayak through the bayous, see Victorian-style mansions, and pass by the picturesque Craig Park. You’ll then paddle into Spring Bayou, a warm water area with frequent manatee sightings!

Look for manatees while you take in the scenery. Manatees use the warmer water of Spring Bayou as a sanctuary during the winter months. Along the way, your guide will keep an eye out for other wildlife including dolphins and a variety of birds. Chances are that you’ll see a variety of wildlife, but sightings are random and not guaranteed.

Learn about Tarpon Springs from your 5-star rated eco-tour guide. Hear about local history, wildlife, and ecosystems. Along the way, you’ll hear about Greek culture and the famous Sponge Docks. Your guide will be happy to take photos and make sure you have fun along the way!

4 of us had the pleasure of renting clear kayaks with Amy as our guide. It was a beautiful day on the water. we saw a manatee nose :) plenty of waterbirds and a very playful dolphin. It was a joy and so relaxing in a beautiful environment. Highly recommend!

My teenage Daughter & I went in the morning. Chase was our guide. She is very educated & was very informative about the wildlife. She also had a great sense of humor! If you get a chance, take the time to do this tour! The clear kayaks take kayaking to a whole different level!! We saw many manitees & birds. One manitee came right up to our kayak. It was amazing!
