Storm and Judge were awesome! They were friendly, funny and also very well informed about the area. Snorkeling with Manatees was a very special experience. The stars of the show were of course the Manatees. They are such beautiful, calm and curious creatures. As soon as we got to the spring, one of them came right up to my face :)

Gabby and Dylan were AMAZING guides! This was by far the best experience of our lives. This company is amazing at what they do. Booking with them was an easy experience. We will be back for sure!

My daughter and I took a 730 semi private ride. There were only 3 of us on the boat which was nice. It was chilly out, 54 degrees and a light sprinkle. Dylan was our captain and Magan was our guide, both were super friendly and knowledgeable. Magan was a life saver for me, I started to panic and she held on to me and helped swim me back to the boat. Dylan kept me company while my daughter and the other swimmer were still out. My daughter had a great time, she said it was totally worth it. Thankfully they had hot tea & hot chocolate for after. One recommendation- bring more than one towel per person if possible. Mine was soaked like it was thrown in the water, my daughter’s was not much drier. We ended up buying a towel when we got back just to finish drying off. Overall a great trip
