Why take this tour?
Hop aboard our Crystal River sightseeing eco tour and enjoy a slow ride through the Crystal River Manatee Refuge. During this hour and a half long excursion, you will have the opportunity to search King’s Bay for birds that swim, fish that fly, and of course, the amazing Florida Manatee!
Our unique spring-fed residential refuge hosts a migration of manatees in the winter time but also provides an ideal environment for manatees year-round. This daily 4:30pm excursion allows us to avoid much of the hustle and bustle of the afternoon and enjoy the early sunset while aboard during the winter months.
