My family and I had a great time swimming with the Manatees, the staff was friendly and the captain was very knowledgeable of the area. Our guide Collin was very helpful and patience.

We took a tour with seadaddy’s dive center and it was great! They taught us how to properly interact with the manatees and not cause them harm or stress. We were able to swim along with the manatees in their natural environment. It is worth the experience!

Thank you Colin and Captain Andrew. My friends and I had a great time on our manatee swim today! Snorkeling by the spring was an added bonus. You both made our trip fun and safe! Thanks so much!!
