Manatee Viewing Cruise

Overview
This tour is the perfect way to stay dry and view the wild manatees of the Kings Bay Wildlife Refuge.

Hop aboard our US Coast Guard certified vessel where you will join your Master Captain to embark on a journey into the Kings Bay refuge waters. On this tour, you and the group will join us for one of the most memorable experiences of a lifetime!

During this trip we will search for our world famous wild manatees that give Crystal River the title of "The Manatee Capital of the World." There is also a chance to see many other species of birds, turtles, and even a dolphin every now and then so be on the lookout for the impressive variety of wildlife that calls the refuge "home".

Captain Steve was great! Got us into all the action right up close. Lots of great information on the area as well. Highly recommend him and the trip.

What a magnificent manatee experience! Every element of this trip was brilliantly run. The team were friendly, knowledgable and great fun to spend a few hours with. A huge thank you to Danni & Steve for looking after us out there and helping to make many magical memories! These creatures are incredible, and we were lucky enough to see a young calf nursing.

We enjoyed this boat viewing. Very good informed captain. Wish we had been there a bit later in the year to see more manatees.
