Cooler Weather Can Mean Incredible Wildlife Viewing

Silver Springs is known for its wildlife, and every tour can bring something different. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed, but cooler weather can be an especially exciting time to be on the lookout for manatees and other wildlife that becomes mor active with the lesser crowds on the river.

Your guide also knows the best spots where to look and can help you see the wildlife you might otherwise paddle right past.

Keep your eyes open for turtles, fish, birds, alligators, river otters, rhesus macaques, and, and these cooler months, manatees.
