Manatee Snorkel Tour do American Pro Diving Center

Really great experience with Captain Glen and our guide Michelle. It’s summer, so not manatee season, but they make sure to know the spots where you’ll still get an encounter. Got to experience a mother and her little calf grazing. Was a very cool sight and they let us stay with them for 30 minutes while they swam and the baby was curious swimming on each side of her mother to check us out. Then we went to see the spring and swim around for a bit. The gift shop is super cute and you can purchase pictures of your experience.

We had a great time. Our guides were so knowledgeable and made sure we all had an interaction with the manatee since there was just one due to it being in August,, which is out of the manatee season. It was cool to swim in the Three Sisters Spring too. We will be coming back during prime season so we can see and swim with a whole lot more.

We had the best time!! The staff were amazing, and really knew how to find the Manatees. We also saw dolphins, turtles and many types of birds. When we found the Manatees they were in very murky waters. We went in to float with them and it was so hard to see anything. All of a sudden there were Manatees in front of me, or next to me. At one point I had a mama and baby on either side of me. I was soooo cool!! Definitely want to come back here to do this all over again... and again and again!!

Abosuletely recommended! Eventhough in Summer there are fewer manatees on the bay, our guide and captaing made it p ossible for us to find a couple of them and we snorkelled and swam with them. it is an amazing experience to see them. they gave us plenty of time to stay and be around them and also took us snorkelling to clearer waters ina spring nearby. Very informative and acknowledged guide.

This was hands down the best part of our visit to Crystal River. Laura was an absolutely incredible tour guide, and Captain Mike made the whole experience calm and lovely on the boat! Though it isn't the winter season, we still got to swim with a momma and her baby. It was an amazing time! I'd highly recommend!

Exactly as advertised. Great facility and location. Capt was great and the location and wildlife were great

Very knowledgeable, fun guide. Saw lots of Manatees, fish and the the Three Sisters Springs was wonderful

Fantastic experience! The tour guides are the best. They’ll make sure you see a manatee, even in the off -season. :)

This was very organized, and both our Captain Glen and Ross, our Manatee swim guide/expert made this such a memorable amazing experience! While in the water, I kept following what Glen was talking to us, he kept guiding from the boat the entire time and telling us how to do things, where the animals were, and reminded us of how to approach etc! This was such a delight! We also saw a somewhat big snapping turtle!!!! We went to 2 more areas to dive again, including a very secluded spring area by a house that no one really knows about with see through waters. We saw beautiful birds too. I want to come earlier in the year as there will be way more manatees as well. It was 10 of us on the boat, perfect mini group size.

Booking through Viator was an absolute disaster. The first booking was cancelled with NO notice. Luckily I got on the night before to make sure I had the address so I discovered our booking was cancelled. I then booked again and our booking was transfered to another vendor without notice and we ended up having to go to another manatee tour business. We made the boat late because of all of this. The people there said "when you book through a third party app like this they don't provide them your contact information incase anything changes" the manatee tour itself was FANTASTIC!! The captain and tour guide were both amazing humans and very accommodating.
