Clear Kayak Manatee Season Tours
Discover Florida's springs with the original clear kayak tour company in Crystal River, running since 2018. Small groups, expert local guides, and 100% clear kayaks. We run two tours by season — you'll choose yours when you book. Three Sisters Springs Tour (Apr 1 – Nov 14): Paddle Kings Bay to Three Sisters Springs, turquoise and 72° year-round, with time to swim. Manatees are occasional in warmer months. Manatee Season Tour (Nov 15 – Mar 31): Hundreds of manatees move into the warm springs of Kings Bay. You'll watch them through a clear hull — no wetsuit, no getting in the water. This is a no-swim tour; we practice passive observation only, in line with FWC guidelines. Two hours, ten guests max, photos from your guide included. Wildlife sightings are never guaranteed. Cold days are the best manatee days.
