Guests check in at the front desk, and then a tour guide will show everyone USFW's Manatee Manners video, instruct our snorkel briefing, and fit everyone for wetsuits. Once it is time, all guests will be shuttled down the dock to meet their Captain. Once on the boat the Captain will take everyone on Kings Bay to locate a manatee to snorkel with. The tour is 3 Hours in Total, with 1 hour of prepwork and 2 on the water. Prepare to spend up to 3 ½ hours including all of the necessary prep work before your tour Minimum of 2 guests required to preform the tour Our boats carry up to 9, for groups larger than 6 please contact us. Minimum of 3 people to perform tour This snorkel experience happens in the manatees natural habitat, which is what makes this so special! They are not captive animals and are free to roam any part of our 588 acre bay. Please keep this in mind when you book your tour, as every trip is different than the last and things like amount of manatees, water clarity, etc are out of our control.
