We spent a few hours together with Capt. Joe to snorkel with manatees and we enjoyed every minute of it! Capt. Joe was well prepared and he took the trip very seriously and respectully to prevent the animals from to much unecessary distrubances. Thank you very much. We can recommend this trip to anyone who like daytrips in small groups.

What an amazing tour we had with this company. An all day tour swimming with the giant gentle Manatee. This company does it all for you, within a safe environment. They supply diving or snorkel equipment and wet suits. they take you where the Manatee are and take great care to protect these beautiful gentle giants.

My family had the experience of a lifetime with the Manatees and our fantastic tour guide, Capt Bill Wilson. Capt Bill is thoroughly experienced with the wildlife in the area, has a great sense of humor, and enjoys the time he spends with his guests. He loves the animals, the water, boating, and the opportunity to share that with others.... More

I'd have to say this was the best way to start our vacation in florida! We went along with Capt. Jo on Friday, April 13th. Both of us were kind of skeptical because we weren't sure if we'd see any manatees that day since it was windy. Boy, did mother nature really spoil us! We saw 15 Manatees!! About 70%... More

Definitely one of the best tours on the water. Small boat, caring captain, small groups, and great gear. Capt. Joe took care of us and really demonstrated a genuine concern for the preservation of the Manatee. To be in the water with these animals is awesome. To have a personal guide go in the water with us to ensure we... More

Snorkeling with the manatees has been on our bucket list for many years and the expectation was very high after looking at pictures on the web. We are all experienced scuba divers and have dove with sharks, manta rays, etc., so we just had to do this. Captain Bill exceeded our expectations and made sure our manatee encounter was one... More

If you are looking for phenomenal things to add to your bucket list, swimming with the manatees is a must-do! And when you start looking for a guide, look no further than Captain Bill with Fun 2 Dive tours out of Crystal River, Florida. Captain Bill made sure we had a good experience, and that the manatees' wellbeing was safe... More

This was our second time taking the Manatee tour with Captain Joe. It was incredible again! We had such a great time in 2008, that when we returned to Florida we wanted to swim with the Manatees again. It was the favorite part of both trips. If you are in Florida I would highly recommend you contact Captain Joe and... More

Not only did Captain Joe find us more manatees than any other tour group we saw out on the water, but he also treated them with the utmost respect! We saw 5 manatees at the end of the season (mommas and babies too), and got to enjoy them all by ourselves in peaceful waters. We even saw a group of... More
