Manatee Photography Tours
Manatee Wildlife Photography Tours
We specalize in manatee wildlife photography tours. Upon request, we take photographers to private locations of clearer water where manatees live. These locations require the 20-ft Pontoon or the 22-ft Funchaser because larger boats cannot go under bridges and manuever to these inlets. ***These incredible photos are courtesy of award-winning wildlife photography Jeroen Hoekendijk.

Manatee Season
Manatee season officially runs during the cooler weather months from November 15th through Early April. However, we see manatees all year long! We recommend earlier morning tours for a better chance to see and swim with these gentle giants! Although we definitely have a reputation for finding manatees when others don't, please remember that we may be in charge of the fun, but Mother Nature is in charge of the manatees!

Everything is Provided
Wetsuits are provided from November 15th through March 31st during colder weather! We furnish everything you need from masks, snorkels, swim noodles, lifevests, and your own designated Coast Guard-approved expert captain that will help guide you to the Ultimate Manatee Experience!

Location
We are located on the beautiful Homosassa River! Homosassa Springs has more manatees, is less crowded, and offers a more organic experience.

Boats
Our 20-foot pontoon and 22-foot Fun Chaser are super comfortable boats that can cruise into the backwaters to seek our manatees in the narrow canals. Both are great to view our resident manatees becuase we can drop the bimini tops to get under the Hall's River Bridge.
