We went on a tour with captain Mike and captain Misty Kelly and it was a wonderful experience. Although the weather was a bit of a bummer it didn’t stop them from giving us the best experience. Absolutely fantastic!

Omg, where do I start?! I went with BF and daughter. She was the only one swimming and my BF and I were just viewers. So we get to the manatee location and everyone gets in. Im on the boat talking to the captain about why I didnt get in (the bacteria in the water) and he reassured me Id be fine in the river we were on. He then turns to me and says, "you want to get in? I know you want to get in. Get in and enjoy". "Grab some noddles and get it"! I didnt hesitate and got right in the water clothes and all!!! It was one of the most amazing experiences. I swam next to manatees! Amanda our guide was amazing and she made sure to tell us and guide us to the ones that were around. The 1st one was a mom and a calf, adorable. There was a set of three which I didnt get to see because they swam off by the time I got to the area. The other I got to see was a massive pregnant female. She was soooo big, I was in awe!!! I was so excited I couldnt contain it! I will def be back when we vist florida in the future. My daughter also enjoyed it and said it was an awesome experience. Thank you Captain Steve and Amanda for everything!!!

I agree the manatee tour was AMAZING! We had Captain Ross he was so helpful and very knowledgeable. We saw a mother and calf and were able to have an up close encounter with them ❤️ I have not really snorkeled before and it took me a bit to get accustomed, to the wet suit and how causes you to float. Captain Ross was patient and so helpful he explained everything that you needed to know about how to passively interact and safety. Along with information on the local area! He also took underwater pictures and video which he put on thumb drive that you can buy at the end of the tour, a perfect keepsake. Since we don’t live close by and this was the highlight of our trip we have booked for a repeat for tomorrow! Remember Save our Manatees friends!!! That you Captain Ross and Memphis !!!
