Introduction

Get ready for an unforgettable adventure with Go Local Manatee Tours! Dive into the crystal clear waters of Crystal River, Florida, and experience an up-close and personal encounter with these gentle giants of the sea. Our small group all-inclusive manatee swim is a three-hour tour unlike any other. With a maximum of six guests per tour, we prioritize responsible tourism and ensure a comfortable and intimate experience for all.

What to expect?

During our semi-private swimming with the manatee tour, you can anticipate a truly immersive and educational experience. Our expert guides will lead you to the heart of Kings Bay, a 600-acre bay where the manatees can be found. Once we locate these magnificent creatures, you will have the opportunity to snorkel and interact with them. Throughout the entire experience, our guides will be capturing photos and videos of your adventure, providing you with a cherished memento of your time with the manatees.

Who is this for?

Our manatee swim tour is perfect for nature enthusiasts, animal lovers, and anyone seeking a unique and awe-inspiring experience. Whether you're a solo traveler, a couple on a romantic getaway, or a family looking for a memorable adventure, this tour is suitable for everyone. We welcome individuals of all ages and swimming abilities. Come and witness the beauty of these gentle giants in their natural habitat.

Why book this?

When you choose Go Local Manatee Tours, you are not just signing up for an ordinary tour. We are committed to responsible tourism and ensuring the well-being of the manatees and their environment. By keeping our group size small, we minimize our impact and provide a more personal and enriching experience. Our knowledgeable guides will share fascinating insights about the manatees and their habitat, offering a unique educational component to your tour. Plus, all the photos and videos taken during the trip are included, allowing you to relive your extraordinary encounter with these magnificent creatures.

Good to know

Please note that this is a true wildlife experience, and we do not guarantee perfect conditions. We believe in transparency with our guests and want to manage expectations. While manatee season offers clearer waters, during spring, summer, and fall, the manatees can be found in the grass flats where visibility can vary between 1 to 6 feet. However, there is a residential population of manatees in our bay year-round, so you can still have the chance to see these gentle giants even in the off-season. Reviews: (No reviews available)

So much fun! We had Lauren & Peter & they were amazing. Very knowledgeable about the local culture & had all kinds of fun facts. We saw SO many manatees and were up close and personal with them. It was truly amazing. They had plenty of recommendations of where to eat after.

We had a great time ! We enjoyed our trip and the hosts of our tour. We came to Crystal River from Orlando which was nearly a 2 hour drive. The I4 was packed with traffic and we were upward of 30 minutes late for our trip. They were extremely nice and flexible and we truly appreciated the courtesy extended to us for our travel. We had amazing weather and made the sun over the river and the experience that much more beautiful. Thank you guys and continued blessings over your business.

Had an absolutely amazing time with this group! Attention to detail, knowledgeable, and every effort to make the experience enjoyable. Will definitely recommend to friends and family that visit the area!!

Really loved the boat ride and the tour guides! So knowledgeable and friendly, and knew the right spots to find the manatees. Even though water was cloudy, had a great time snorkeling with a mom and baby manatee!

Jeff M

Wonderful crew, and extremely knowledgeable. I feel the best part was that the owner and crew were local and grew up around that water. Derek and Lindsey, hopefully I'm right with her name, was absolutely amazing! We will definitely be back with the rest of the family someday. My only regret was I did not tip! Uhhg! I was completely distracted and was excited about the whole venture! I will make up for it next time!

What a fantastic team! The private boat allowed our small group a truly personal experience, totally tailored for us throughout as if we were being hosted by friends. Late in the season we still had great weather and they found manatees quickly. Derick took amazing photos so no distractions for us. 110% experience.
