Chassahowitzka River Clear Kayak Springs & Manatee Tours
The Chassahowitzka River — locals call it "The Chaz" — is what you get when you drive past all the crowded springs and keep going. It's near Homosassa in Citrus County, less than 2 hours from Orlando and Tampa — close enough for a weekend escape, far enough to feel like you've discovered wild Florida! Each tour is guided by a passionate & knowledgeable guide, operated in small groups, and use 100% clear tandem kayaks. We offer two seasonal clear kayak tours here: Manatee Season Tours (Nov 15–Mar 31): focused on spotting these gentle giants in their natural habitat. Summer Springs Tours (Apr 1–Nov 14): all about spring-hopping, wildlife, and swimming in stunning freshwater springs.
