Tours and Instruction

Crystal River Manatee Tours at the Port Hotel and Marina offer a once in a lifetime opportunity to actually swim with the manatees. The Florida manatee is a gentle and curious prehistoric mammal that is attracted to the warm spring-fed waters of Crystal River Florida. During the cooler winter months, hundreds of these marvelous sea cows inhabit the warm 72 degree waters of Kings Bay next to the Port Hotel and Marina.

We supply the wet suits and snorkel gear, you can rent a pontoon boat, jon boat canoe or kayak from us, or you can sign up for a guided manatee snorkel tour with one of our Coast Guard licensed captains. We also offer sight seeing boat tours and scuba diving tours in Crystal River Florida. Come see the manatees in Crystal River for yourself and make a memory to last a lifetime.
