Swimming with Manatee's: Crystal River, FL, Family Adventure Charters: Road Life More Life
Swimming with Manatee's...THAT IS ALL!
Majestic Manatee Tour Crystal River, Florida
Crystal River, Florida is one of the places where many manatees call home during the winter months. It's constant 72 degree spring water is perfect for them during this season. I have to say, swimming with manatees is one of the most amazing life experiences and adventures ever. My inner child (who desperately wanted to be a Marine Biologist) was in all her glory watching and observing, and just basking in their awesomeness. They are so interesting to watch and we saw about 6 of them. They don't do much when they're resting, but watching their faces as they come up to take a breath or two then head back down to continue their nap is so cool to see. And who knew that algae grew on them and the fish eat the algae off of them. Some even had barnacles that grew on them. The ones resting near rocks looked just like rocks and I'm fascinated by how something so big can be so camouflage but also glide and move so smoothly. Did you know that manatees only have about 3-4% body fat?? Hard to believe! That was just one of the interesting facts that Captain Colin told us about on your tour. We highly recommend the Majestic Manatee Tour with Captain Colin and swim guide, Mikayle. They were AMAZING and this was an awesome trip for the whole family. Even our 6 year old had a wonderful time.

SWIMMING WITH MANATEES
Anneka is privileged to get up close with one of the world's rarest and most docile sea mammals, The Manatee, otherwise known as the Sea Cow in The Crystal River in Florida. Are they more closely related to Elephants than whales and walruses? Watch to find out...
Remember to always be careful around these threatened creatures. As stated in the film, respect and space should always be given to them. Do not chase or frighten them just to get a photo.
Disclaimer: The ONLY place you can legally swim with a manatee in the state of Florida is the Crystal River. You can only touch a manatee as long as the animal initiates contact first which they did with the host in this film. If a manatee does not initiate contact then you must not touch or chase one. This is the advise that we were given when on our trip. If a manatee approaches you, you are allowed in this circumstance to extend one hand out only.
Some manatees, especially young ones, are very curious and may come up to examine you (Manatees are very short-sighted) in which case you may put one hand out to the manatee. You must never touch a manatee under its front flipper as this is where the females keep their mammary glands.
The young manatee in our film approached the host for contact and was outside of the protected zone. Animal Watch was vigilant in obeying all of the advice and laws they were advised of by the boating company.

Baby Monkeys On Captain Tom's Custom Charters - 3 Hour Silver River Tour Ocala Florida
We went on a 3 hour tour and I took a video of what we saw. If you want to have some fun and see wild life, including monkeys, go for a tour with Captain Tom. Great guy, great fun. Real Florida. At least real Ocala Florida.
We saw lots of alligators, birds, and of course the baby monkeys made the trip. It was so much fun watching the troop from the boat. There had to be a dozen monkeys jumping, eating and hanging on to momma. We saw lots of fish, turtles and even an otter (my favorite animal).
This tour alone is worth a trip to Florida. If you live in the Ocala area, it is especially a must see.
These are the locations Captain Tom will take you to,
Silver or Ocklawaha Rivers ~ Hwy 40 East: Sightsee, picnic, nature study; Silver River, Silver Springs plus the Ocklawaha for more of the same or go Family Fishing for the big one!
Eureka West Ramp ~ Hwy 316 west of the bridge: Two types of habitats; natural river to the south or north toward Rodman Reservoir. Good for all activities, especially bird watching and fishing.
Salt Springs ~ Hwy 19: Unique spring run to Lake George in the St. John's River. Nature Study (birds of prey), Fishing and seasonal crabbing.
Lake Kerr ~ Moorhead Boat Ramp: Swimming, Sightseeing, fishing and nature studyHis tour was informative and fun for the whole family.

Drift Dive in West Palm | Scuba Diving | Full Video
Something, most certainly, happens to a diver's emotions underwater. It is not merely a side effect of the pleasing, vaguely erotic sensation of water pressure on the body. Nor is it alone the peculiar sense of weightlessness, which permits a diver to hang motionless in open water, observing sea life large as whales around him; not the ability of a diver, descending in that condition, to slowly tumble and rotate in all three spatial planes. It is not the exhilaration from disorientation that comes when one's point of view starts to lose its lefts and down and gains instead something else, a unique perception that grows out of the ease of movement in three dimensions. It is not from the diminishment of gravity to a force little more emphatic than a suggestion. It is not solely exposure to an unfamiliar intensity of life. It is not a state of rapture with the bottomless blue world beneath one's feet ... it is some complicated mix of these emotions, together with the constant proximity of real terror. - BARRY LOPEZ, About This Life
