My mom and I are still buzzing from our manatee tour with Captains Dustin and Memphis! We went on the 7:00 AM manatee tour this past Friday and it was truly an incredible experience. This has been my mom's #1 bucket list item for years and years. She just celebrated a birthday and finished cancer radiation treatments so I decided it was time to make mark this off her list. We were not disappointed! Captain Dustin was so knowledgeable and we learned so much about manatees, the springs and about snorkeling in general from him. He was delighted to answer every one of my mom's questions about manatees! I highly recommend Dustin and Memphis as your guides. They made us feel at ease and comfortable and provided us with a truly wonderful time! We cannot wait to go back and hopefully take friends and family!

Before going on the trip I wasent sure which company to book a manatee swim with but i am so glad i went with Plantation. I knew that going on June 23rd meant there was less manatees in the area but Captain Lance and Ross did such a good job trying to find manatees and getting all of us an opportunity to see them. Captain Lance would move each one of us so we could see them and they could swim around us or even under us! It was a dream of mine to swim with manatees and im so glad i had guides that were as friend and patient as they were. I had never snorkeled before but Captain Lance was so patient and helpful. I would definitely recommend this. After this experience i will definitely come back in the winter when there are more manatees

Scheduled a small group manatee swim off season at a bad time of the year but captains Dustin and Lance were extremely knowledgeable of the area and habits of the manatee. They were friendly, informative, and helpful and made the entire trip a joy and in no time at all we were in the water up close and personal with manatees. Don't bring a camera or worry about photos; Dustin did an amazing job with video and photos.Can't wait to return with our whole family during peak manatee season and definitely want to have Dustin and Lance as our captains!
