Crystal River: Springs and Manatees Clear Kayak Tour

You will journey out to some of the clearest water in the world in our ALL clear kayaks with one of our amazing LOCAL guides. You will learn about our ecosystem and possibly spot local wildlife such as manatees, turtles, various birds, dolphins, and many species of fish. Manatee season ends March 31st, but we have resident manatees that live here year round. Manatee sightings are not guaranteed from April 1st - November 14th, but we definitely go to various springs. On non windy days, our tour enters the World Famous Three Sisters Springs. This is the NUMBER one tour in Florida for spring hunters. Don't miss out and reserve your spot today! Begin your tour at the activity provider's gift shop in Crystal River. After check-in, watch a short video required by the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission. Learn about manatees and how to interact safely and respectfully with these gentle giants. Then, go over some brief safety information with your guide before boarding a van or golf cart to head to the launch point. Once there, get your life vests and paddles before boarding your clear 2-seater kayak. Next, follow your guide on a 1-mile paddle to the world-famous Three Sisters Springs, which are only open to kayaks from April 1 to November 14. Along the way, look out for the region's diverse wildlife, including manatees, turtles, birds, dolphins, and many fish species. Once you’ve experienced the springs, paddle back to the launch point. From there, you’ll be picked up and transported back to the gift shop, where you can see and buy a photo package of your tour before departing.
