The Safari

Journey with us on a snorkeling safari to the Florida Gulf Coast to swim with North America's gentle giant, the Manatee! This Carolina Safari takes us to the Manatee Capital of the World; Crystal River, Florida where thousands of Manatees migrate every winter seeking the warm waters of the Florida Springs that naturally pump warm freshwater into the Gulf of Mexico. The spring water is a constant 72 degrees fahrenheit which keeps manatees warm during those cold winter nights. Manatees naturally feed on vegetation and docile by nature. While we're not allowed to touch them, there's nothing stopping them from coming in for a closer look at us!

 

We'll also have the chance to see the abundant marine life that make use of the springs as well like Fish, Turtles, Crabs, and maybe even a Gator! Travelers from around the world visit this place every year to have the encounter of a lifetime by swimming with these magnificent creatures and you can be one of them. With expert guides, we'll make sure you have the wildest encounter imaginable!
