My family loved the park. The park and the staff are great. We saw the manatees. Don't leave valuables in the car. We got robbed today. Worst experience in the world! But it's kind of overwhelming to have a good time and then see your car broken and your impt info on you don't know who's hands. My kids are... more

It's just a little park but good place to spend an hour and see the manatees or a great place for a picnic. more

Manatee Park is quite simply one of the best kayaking experiences ever. Whether you are an avid kayaker or a novice, you have the opportunity to see wildlife in a way that you would never experience on the shore. Take a trip with kayak-excursions.com where you get the best equipment, the best service and a fantastic overall experience. The manatee... more

I have been there on two separate trips to Fort Myers. What you see there depends on the season, but when the Gulf water is cold, and the manatees come into the park to be warm, it is amazing to see them. My son could just watch them for hours. They are so endearing. It is great that they have... more

There were more manatees than we could possibly count - I would estimate more than 50. Of course, viewing them from above the water only allows mostly short glimpses of backs and snouts. It would be great to be able to see them from underwater, but that is obviously beyond the budget of this little county park. The park is... more

We just visited over President's day weekend. Maybe we are just spoiled by dolphins and the like, but as far as viewing the manatees, you just occasionally see a bump of a head or back. Maybe there weren't that many the day we were there. The volunteers are very enthusiastic and will answer any questions. The perfect thing to do... more

Went with my son's class. The children loved all of the manatees. It is very important to show the kids how to take care of the manatee's. The guids where very helpful and they made sure that they answered all of the childers questions. They are doing a great job. more

We went in January and were amazed by how many manatees we saw. It was very exciting. The guide was knowledgable & friendly. The only sad thing was how many of the manatees had scars form boat propellers. But the tour makes you appreciate how wonderful the manatees are and why they must be saved ! Would go again &... more

Went here for a few hours with my wife in November 2002. When the water is getting colder in the gulf, the manatees come up the river which is warmed by the nearby hydro electric plant. This is one example of man made blots on the landscape actually impacting in a favourable manner on the wildlife. The park is wonderful.... more
