About
Our location is simply beautiful. We are the closest tour boat to the springs and the Homosassa Nature Park which means you spend a lot less time getting ready and traveling and a lot more time enjoying your snorkel adventure! When you arrive, we will do everything we can to make your river adventure the best you have ever had. We can take you from the blue water of the springs all the way past Monkey Island to see all the beautiful sights of the Homosassa River! We can take you past Bird Island toward the Gulf of Mexico! We will customize the perfect tour for your group.
Please Note
Although we may see manatees any time of year, manatee season officially runs during colder weather from November 15th to April 15th. Please keep your expectations realistic as although we are in charge of the fun, Mother Nature is in charge of the manatees!
