- 32 SE US Hwy 19 - Enjoy complimentary photos on this tour from May to November! Embark on an unforgettable journey to snorkel with wild manatees in Crystal River, Florida! Up to 12 participants can join this amazing excursion through the King’s Bay Manatee Refuge.
Board The Manatee Duchess and search for the magnificent manatees that inhabit our area. Discover more about our town and wildlife during your manatee search as your in-water guide and captain provide education and instructions on proper conduct in the water. Manatee numbers fluctuate throughout the year, so finding one in our 600-acre bay can take anywhere from five minutes to over an hour. Once a manatee is located, swim alongside these graceful and impressive creatures while your in-water guide captures photos and assists guests as needed. Guests will snorkel calmly and quietly, aided by the wetsuits and swim noodles provided with the tour.
Please note: This is a natural experience, and while manatees can be found year-round, conditions vary daily. If you have any questions about conditions or the experience, feel free to ask.
