Allysa and Lenore were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. We truly enjoyed our Manatee experience. Purchase the picture package - you will not be disappointed. We would not recommend this for young children that can't follow instructions or rules!

Step by Step affairs with Sea Daddy Adventures are awesome. Alysa gave us intro on what is all about. Capt. Craig and Collin Morrisey our guide are hands-on with my family of 6 pax from briefings, observing rules and safety to leading us to good spot have our adventure with manatees filled our story with endless memories. My grandchildren came to know where Crystal River is and what this place can leave long lasting memories. Time was too short to explore more.

A well managed tour conducted by personable and competent staff for a fair price. Simply put: It was a very fun experience to share with friends and family! The only real problem was that we paid $58 extra for a photo package that was very unskillfully done ~ many of our photos were simply an indiscernible blur ~ otherwise, this might have been a 5-star experience.

My husband and I did an 8:00 Mania tour and had a great experience with Captain Chris and Bill. We saw a lot of manatees up close and learned about their habitat and the surrounding springs. All the staff were friendly and professional and boat was a short walk from the center. Wetsuits and snorkel equipment were clean and in good condition. After the initial shock, we got accustomed to water temperature very quickly. Loved that Bill took photos of the group and their encounters and we received the previews the same day. Taking them myself in the water with phone didn’t work at all for me. Thank you, Bill, for the fabulous (and rare, I think) face-to-face shots and kiss with a curious juvenile - one of the best experiences of my life! Would definitely go with Seadaddy’s again!

Perfect. Captain Mitchel and Billy are really great making this trip a lot of fun. They took us to all the right spots to get very close to manatees. I was closely investigated by a tween manatee. Lol, the rules restricted me from touching manatee but rules don't apply to manatee, when he wanted to touch me. While I was at the boat ladder, he put his nose through the ladder to see my face, and swam through me. lol, very cute.

The trip was organized and professional as were all the staff. They made sure that we knew what to expect and also offered help. They made it a wonderful memorable day the manatees also cooperated. Will definitely go on another tour with them

Can't say enough good things about my experience. I will say have an open mind and go with the flow. But the staff were absolutely the friendliest and upbeat. Very knowledgeable, passionate, and protective of the manatees. My friend and I went, and we had a blast a very memorable experience. They are very organized and their scheduling/ timing for everything is pretty seamless. Overall, I had a wonderful smooth experience! CAN'T WAIT TO GO AGAIN...AND AGAIN!

This was by far the most fun the 4 of us have had in a long time!!! We found many manatees and were allowed to swim among them. We also saw a manatee rescue. This is the best tour company in Florida. I've been to a lot of them and this one made sure we had our money's worth and that we had fun!! Thank you

What a fantastic experience, from booking to swimming! We had to reschedule due to weather conditions and I can't say enough about the friendly, accommodating, helpful staff who handled everything for us. Once there our captain, Carlos and our in water guide, Marissa where the best! They gave us a carefree, fun adventure. Marissa was amazing at putting us at ease while in the water. She gave us facts, took pictures and held our hands when we needed it, all without breaking a sweat. Truly one of the most amazing times ever. We would give them 10 gold stars if possiblle!

Very best experience we could have hoped for. The crew were amazing spotting the manatee and helping us to be at ease. So far I think it’s the best adventure we’ve had since we started coming to Florida 25 years ago.

They still have the Groupon but no contact information. Does anyone know if they are still in business?

Is this something we can do in January?
Written November 27, 2017
You wear a wet suit, but it is chilly. Water temp is 72 all the time. That’s why the manatees are there. Bring a towel and sweat shirt for when you get out.
Written December 23, 2017
If we go this first week of August, how many manatees do you think we might see?
Written August 1, 2016
It's off season. That said - we saw about 10 last week 😊

Hi, does anyone know if they offer life vests? Three of my kids do not know how to swim but they have snorkeled before with life vests.
Written July 7, 2016
"My best advice would be to find another company! If you read my review you would know we had serious issues with this tour. They do not provide snorkeling vests but insist that you use a "noodle" which does not offer any safety for children.

For the manatee trip it says one per visit is it one per person or one per group?
Written April 16, 2015
Do you mean the groupon? It's one per person. If you are thinking of purchasing a groupon I reccommend you call them directly first
