Weeki Wachee Clear Paddle Board Tours Manatee Season November 15th-March 31st

Weeki Wachee Clear Paddle Board Tours Manatee Season November 15th-March 31st

Overview

Get out on the water and see the Weeki Wachee River and surround waterways from a new perspective with this clearly unique stand up paddle board tour! SUP has the advantage of greater visibility of manatees and their underwater world! These large aquatic mammals call the Weeki Wachee River home all year long but during cooler months more manatees use the Weeki Wachee and surrounding waterways as their warm water winter habitat (November 14-March 31st).

One of the most scenic water ways in Florida- grab your window seat to a view like no other with the opportunity to hopefully spot a manatee or many on our coldest mornings! We foster a commitment to education, stewardship and responsible ecotourism so learn about manatees from our team of Guardian Guides certified by Save the Manatees! We love sharing all the seacow-know-how so we that we can share their home with them for many years! We donate a portion of each reservation to manatee conservation.

What a day! Vinny was our guide and he was exceptional. He prepared us well, taught us so much about conservation and care of manatees and other wildlife, and was so friendly and personable. We enjoyed seeing several manatees, birds, and a spectacular dolphin interaction when they swam all around us. Love the photos Vinny sent us afterwards too. A 5-star experience!

The paddle boards were awesome! Them being clear it was like magnifying everything underneath. We saw ALOT of fish and a couple manatee! Thank you to our tour guide Cassie for a wonderful time! She was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and greenery on our trip.

Vinny was a great tour guide!! We had a great time doing the clear paddle-boards and even saw a manatee. The staff are very respectful to the wildlife in the area and knowledgeable. I would say you would need pretty good balance and be comfortable with paddle boarding for that tour. But without experience it can still be a good time if you don’t mind falling and have a good sense of humor about it. They also have kayaking tours for those who don’t feel comfortable with paddle boards. At the end of our tour, we had an accident with a missing phone and keys falling in the river. Vinny and Taylor were very understanding, went above and beyond to search for the keys and phone in the river, and make sure we were taken care of and able to get home safe and follow up with us after. Even with the accident, we were able to have a great time. I would absolutely give this company my business and would recommend them to anyone I know!
