Unfortunately only 3 of us were able to arrive on time. One party of 6 had two car sick kids in the car and had to keep stopping. The Manatee dive was unable to accommodate a boat for the 12 of us at 10 am so we were out of luck for the trip.

Thank you so much for letting us know and we are truly sorry you had sick children in route. We would agree that it has been very difficult to reschedule during this peak time and limited capacity as we have had sold out experiences because of this. If the space was available I know they would have made every attempt they could to fit you in. We are very much looking forward to when we can all resume normal operations so we can accommodate all that want to travel safely.

This was something my daughter and girlfriend had always wanted to do. Was a great experience. We saw a lot on manatees. The water was cold but the tour people said the colder the better. The boat driver and guide were fantastic!

Alex and Matt were absolutely amazing my kids and I had a blast. Kids asked could we stay another day so we could swim again with the Mandatees. The guys were so knowledgeable ,you asked a question they knew the answer. Definitely a great time tons of awesome pictures were taken if us as well.
