Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for this manatee swim tour? Can kids join?

A: Yes, kids can definitely join the tour! They are usually allowed as long as they are comfortable in the water and accompanied by an adult. The age limit varies by provider, but generally, children as young as 5 can participate. Make sure they know how to swim, though, since it can get a bit deep in some areas.

Q: What happens if the weather is bad? Can we reschedule?

A: If the weather is bad, you can usually reschedule without any issues. The providers prioritize safety, so they’ll let you know at least 24 hours in advance if they need to cancel. If you’re giving this as a gift, make sure to check the cancellation policy when booking! They’re pretty flexible and understanding.

Q: What should we wear? Is it really cold in the water?

A: You should wear a swimsuit underneath the wetsuit they provide, but also bring a change of clothes for afterward. The water can be chilly, especially in the winter months, so having a wetsuit is a must for staying warm. Plus, it helps with buoyancy!

Just booked the swim with manatees – so excited!

I just booked this private tour in Crystal River for next month, and I can’t wait! I’ve heard it’s such a magical experience swimming with these gentle giants. I got it for my partner's birthday. I hope we see lots of manatees! Any tips on what to bring or expect?

Swimming with manatees was incredible!

I did the swim with manatees tour last week, and it was honestly one of the best experiences ever! The guides were super friendly and made sure we were comfortable. We saw a whole bunch of manatees and even some dolphins! The wetsuits kept us warm too. Highly recommend this if you love nature!
