Q&A
A: Yes, the clear bottom kayaks have a maximum capacity of 285 pounds. If your friend is close to that limit, it's best to consider it. Otherwise, you can still enjoy kayaking together in a tandem kayak if needed. Just make sure to book ahead, especially if you're planning to go during peak manatee season!
A: January can be a bit chilly in Florida, especially in the mornings. Daytime temps usually range from the mid-50s to mid-70s. It’s a good idea to dress in layers and maybe bring a light jacket. Also, check the forecast—if it’s too cold or windy, they may cancel for safety reasons.
A: Yes, you can rent snorkeling gear from the dive shop when you get there! It’s super convenient if you don’t want to haul your own. Just ask the staff when you arrive, and they’ll set you up. The visibility is amazing, especially around the springs!

Thinking of gifting the clear bottom kayak tour for my parents' anniversary!
I’m really excited about getting my parents a clear bottom kayak rental for their anniversary. They love nature, and I think the whole manatee experience will blow their minds! Planning to book for late January when the manatees are around. Anyone have tips on the best time to go or what to expect? Also, should I include a snorkel rental for them?
Did anyone else do the clear bottom kayak tour in Crystal River?
I went on the self-guided clear bottom kayak tour last month and it was amazing! The water was so clear—it felt like an aquarium! I spotted a few manatees, which was totally the highlight. If you’re going, bring some snacks and a waterproof phone case. Highly recommend this for a chill day out in nature. Planning to go again soon!
