Swim With Manatees Then Join a Dolphin Smart Encounter!
About
After your morning with Manatee Swim, join us for a amazing Dolphin Smart encounter. We are endorsed by the Dolphin Smart Program ENDORSED by NOAA Fisheries ( National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration). We see dolphins 8 out of 10 trips. If you want to take pictures or just watch them in their habitat, choose us! The dolphin encounters in Homosassa and Crystal River Florida (Central West Coast Gulf Side) have become more and more popular. These guys have no schedule and can show up anywhere. The dolphins are funny and have amazing speeds. Let’s head out on a river boat ride to see these wild dolphins
We might even see them feeding, or jumping and splashing – what a great way to spend your afternoon. We will also view other wildlife and landmarks (American bald eagles, wild pigs, Indian mounds and more) while we head out to the Gulf of Mexico.
Tour times are at 4 pm daily, please allow a little extra time for departures.
