How can you not love a manatee?! And to have them swim up to you to say hello is amazing. Captain Ross was very informative. Would gladly do this again on the next visit.

My sister and I went took the semi-private manatee tour last week. This trip has a limit of 6 persons; with only the two of us, I was surprised they went ahead with the trip. Their operation was very efficient. We suited up with nice 5mm wetsuits, watched the standard rules of manatee diving conduct video and were out to the King Springs dive site before any other boats showed up. We drank hot coffee and waited until sunrise to get into the water. There were a lot of Manatees and we had some great interactions with them. The area was also loaded with large Snook and HUGE Tarpon. The guide John and captain Ed are really good guys and did a great job. Once the trip was done and we were back at the dive shop, we got to take warm showers before going home. It was a very enjoyable trip; I will certainly come back and take this trip again next year!

Visited Plantations on Crystal River and booked the swim with Manatees trip.....outstanding knowledge, professional attention by all involved at the dive shop and attention to all details of getting you prepared. Captain Ross supported by Captain Memphis were outstanding in their delivery and care during the experience. Seeing the Manatees upclose and personal was one of the best bucket list "must do's"and these guys made it great. Most enjoyable time had by all four of us.....highly recomend the tour,the company and most importantly the people involved....keep up the great work guys. One observation that we discussed with the team were perhaps the addition of more showers and a few other small uopgrads to the wash room/changing area to make them even better.
