We did a manatee snorkeling tour with these guys. They have very much experience and are the cheapest one around. We were lucky enough to stumble upon a handful of dolphins, tarpins and a couple of manatees during the tour.

This was a great location just behind the Best Western. We were in town to kayak and swim with the manatees. The captain was very laid back and explained the process and local politics to us. We went to Three Sisters Springs and the manatees very everywhere. It was very cool just to watch them. And of course, some people...

I booked with this shop after reading their reviews on TripAdvisor. I can't say I'm disappointed.
We took their manatee snorkel tour, which took off via pontoon from a dock directly behind the shop. They promised manatees and they delivered. Even though it was a windy day and conditions only allowed us to go to one site (Three Sisters), we...

If you want to go see manatees, talk to this gentleman first. He will give you the straight goods on when to go, or even IF to go on that particular day.. If you're diving, this is the ONLY place to get your gear / air / etc.

The Pre-Veterinary Society of USF wanted to go dive with manatees, so I found this place for us. They really do live up to their reviews as being very kind, funny, and respectable to their guests, both the manatees and humans! The number of fish of different sizes swimming below you was just as amazing as the manatees showing up...

The staff is superior and always full of tidbits that will help you out. I have been going to Crystal River for over 7 years in all date ranges and always find this dive center well staffed, well equipped, and more than reasonable.

I did lots of research before selecting Crystal Lodge Dive Center. They were by far the cheapest and seemed to be the most convenient - located behind the Best Western right on the river. CALL THEM for information. I was told on the phone our reservation for the boat was only good til 9am and then they'd give it to...
