Guided Small Group Manatee Snorkeling Tour with In-Water Photographer

Overview
Enjoy a close, personal encounter with the West Indian Manatee as you snorkel with them under the guidance of a U.S. Coast Guard Licensed Captain. Our small group (no more than six guests) tours are conducted daily in the beautiful Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge. Get up close and personal with these amazing mammals and learn about the ecosystem and their habitat. 

Unlike many tours, these Captains will actually swim with you and your group to ensure that you have a memorable experience. While in the water, your captain/tour guide will take high-definition photos and videos of you and your group which you will be able to view and purchase at the end of your trip. 

Your price includes all snorkeling equipment (mask, snorkel, wetsuit) and complimentary coffee or hot cocoa.

Had a great time meeting the Manatees at crystal river. Leah was great with the camera and reassured my nervous wife. Captain Ron was as chilled as they come. Our 3 Boys and us will never forget it. Thanks

Awesome trip. Got to see manatees and sealife And visit multiple springs. Staff is excellent and work hard to make sure you have a great time. Even gave us coffee and hot chocolate between trips I to the water. Highly recommend them. This was our second time here and our second time using Gulf Coast Expeditions. Were here a year ago as well.

The magic of the manatees. They don't do much, but they do it with grace and serenity. Leeann (sorry if misspelled) was great and fun to be around. The captain was very knowledgeable and personable. Great time for everyone.
