- CAPTAIN PARKER
Hi, my name is Master Captain - Parker, lead Captain of Snorkeling With The Manatees. Thanks for viewing our website. Before and during this crazy time of the world, we have always provided a LOW-RISK environment for you and your family. Our captains and I have been conducting Manatee Snorkel and Swim Tours in the Crystal River Refuge and Homosassa River Florida every day for over 24 years. We enjoy the manatees as much as you will. With many years of experience, we have learned that less is more. We have a business that focuses on fewer people at one time rather than many people at once.
Our most popular manatee tour is three to three and a half hours long, from start to finish except for our All-Day Private Tours. We try to keep you in the water upwards to an hour and a half, although we or anybody else cannot guarantee how long you're with the manatees for they are free roaming, but we do our best. The "Swim with Manatee Tours" are conducted in a educational and instructional manor, to ensure the best encounter for the manatees and your family. We are also permitted by the US Fish and Wildlife Service (permit # 09038) to conduct the manatee tours in Crystal River and Homosassa River daily. We take the time needed for our customers, the waters are shallow, the swims are easy, and you will never be rushed.
