Overview

Our objective is to provide a serene eco-tour experience on Kings Bay Crystal River Florida, offering opportunities to observe wildlife in its natural habitat while minimizing disruption and fostering appreciation for the creatures that inhabit Kings Bay. In the winter months, up to 1000 Floridian West Indian Manatees migrate to Kings Bay Crystal River Fl to seek refuge in its 72-degree spring-fed estuary. Our vessel accommodates up to six passengers. As an owner-operator business, I have been operating as a Manatee tour captain on Kings Bay since 2018. Having previously worked with prominent companies, I sought to establish my own business, focusing on smaller groups for a more personalized experience.

Frequently Asked Questions (9)

Q: Will I get seasick on Private Eco Tour in Kings Bay Crystal River Florida?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
