The Enchanted Swimstress

It’s such a blast to be a dive guide for families visiting our area. THREE generations of divers right here, the youngest is 12. How great is that? Come dive, mermaid, or snorkel with manatees with me American Pro Diving Center!!!

ROMEO!! I visited him numerous times in Tampa, & one week after his transport to Gulfarium. So happy to see the big guy thriving, & breaking records!

As a Divemaster it’s paramount that I have high performance gear. As a Mermaid Instructor aesthetics are close in priority. Now I have both!! Rash guard by & Mask/snorkel by . I got mine at !!

SO EXCITED to announce I’ve changed locations to Paddletail Waterfront Adventures!!! It’s a brand new location so EVERYTHING is new…except the relationships I established years ago, as most of us worked together when I moved to Crystal River. It definitely feels like a homecoming, not starting all over. What does this mean for you? Same services I’ve been offering only in a new upscale location with upgraded gear! As a massive bonus, I’ll also be offering deep water fitness (to include mermaid fitness) at our sister location, American Pro Dive as well as mermaid classes there. Look for details & date announcements to be coming soon!!! Many thanks again to Paul Cross for continued leadership & massive action taking in our community!!

I had the morning off so I did a sunrise swim out to Kings Spring to see the manatee & WOW was it magical! I’m SO grateful to Gina Crane from Bird’s Underwater for capturing these photos!!!! It’s a reminder of what a thrill it is to be on the receiving end of the immortalization of an exquisite moment…& also exemplifies the reward of passive observation. When you chill & are respectful, manatee accept you as a sea creature, & beautiful moments like this happen. Thanks again, Gina!!

I wore my new on a casual swim/snorkel today & the manatee were so intrigued!! The pattern is influenced by Sea Kelp which may explain it. 😄🤿 Wouldn’t it be great to have one representing Eel Grass, & a portion of the proceeds went to manatee habitat rehabilitation?!

SUCH a pleasure taking Discover Crystal River Florida out to see the manatee yesterday!!! They do such COOL THINGS for the community, & generally are a blast to hang out with!

This week, #letsdicover what it's really like to swim with the manatees! Manatee Season begins on Saturday but today, we got to enjoy the spectacular experience of swimming with them! Plantation Adventure Center and Manatee Tours were amazing hosts and made it so easy and fun to take in the majestic moments with these creatures. 😍 If you've never swam with manatees, you need to change that as soon as possible!🙌 To schedule a tour, head to plantationadventurecenter.com and you'll get to do something that truly is life changing! 😊 #discovercrystalriver #visitflorida #lovefl #citruscounty #citruscountyflorida #crystalriver #manateeseason #DiscoverCR #manateelove
