In the winter months, we go to the springs AND swim with manatees! During cold times of the year, the manatees use the springs to keep warm. ❄️
In the summer months, we swim with the manatees THEN go to the springs. There’s much more grass in other areas the bay and the manatees current focus is to eat! They are munching around the bay consuming up to 100 pounds of grass each! 🤯🌿
It may take a little patience to find the manatees, but our crew is prepared to show you around Kings Bay and teach you everything there is to know! You may spot birds, turtles, or even a dolphin along the way! 🐢

Grateful for some spectacular Manatee Mornings recently! 😍
There are not hundreds of manatees in the area at this time, but we typically have a few dozen scattered about the bay. After watching the Manatee Manners safety video and receiving a briefing from your Inwater Guide, you can enter the manatee’s world in a respectful way! 🩵

In moments like this, time stands still!🥰
If a manatee approaches you to take a peak, use your Passive Observation skills and Manatee Manners. You should “Freeze and Float” until the manatee has passed by to ensure it is comfortable in its home and not startled. These Gentle Giants are sensitive to loud sounds and splashes in the water, so remain calm and quiet as much as possible!🤿💙
