THREE SISTERS SPRINGS TOUR
This 2 hour guided eco-tour to Three Sisters Springs is sure to entertain as well as inform you of the many wonders of Crystal River. The Three Sisters Springs tour runs from April to October, when the spring is not used as a manatee sanctuary. In the off season, there are a few resident manatees we may see on this tour! Take a dip in the crystal clear, fresh and clean, 72 degree water that is pumped for the many spring heads located here. You won’t want to miss this!

MANATEE SEASON TOUR
This is a manatee lover’s dream paddle! Between November and March, hundreds of manatees migrate inland to the springs to seek refuge and stay warm. This 2-2.5 hour guided adventure includes a relaxed paddle through Kings Bay to Hunter Springs, Jurassic Springs and beyond to experience the manatees in their natural habitat. And what better way to do that than in a 100% clear kayak!?
