Joe & His Manatee in Homosassa, Florida
Joe was approached by two sweet manatees. Watch how they practically kiss him. He does exactly what he was instructed to do by our licensed local guides.
Our students are briefed about how too interact with these creatures. They practice passive observation and wait for manatees to come up to them for interaction.
Manatee Snorkel: Crystal River Florida - December 30th 2017
Manatee Snorkel Crystal River Florida - December 30th 2017
Crystal River is a great place to check out Manatees during the winter months. They life to congregate near the springs because the water stays about 72 degrees Fahrenheit all year long. Manatees are very sensitive to cold, and can go into shock if the temperature drops to much. This is why it is important not to feed or give fresh water to manatees. If you alter their habits, they may not migrate where they need to go in the winter months.
This trip was conducted through American Pro Dive Center which does a very good job at making sure its patrons follow the rules while in the water. During manatee encounters, everyone must stay floating on the surface with a pool noodle to make sure no one forgets. You cannot approach a manatee, just wait for them to move around you. Sometimes the Manatees want some interaction and will come right up to you looking for a scratch. This is ok, as long as the manatee starts the interaction and it is free to leave as it chooses.
The manatees also have protected “No human” zones to retreat to if they choose. Mostly the manatees just rest at the surface and generally seem to accept us as strange looking floating manatees.
If you are interested in this type of trip while you are in Florida, Contact American Pro Dive center. They run other spring related snorkel and dive trips as well!
Thanks to my Friend Chris for providing me the video of the calf under the stairs.
And thanks to everyone for watching!

Swim with Manatees - Homosassa Springs, Florida, USA
See the manatee on a roll. There are a lot of regulations about not approaching manatees in the wild. It is not difficult to get them to come and check you out though. Then you can touch his belly with an open palm to see him roll...

Swimming with WILD Manatees | Homosassa Springs, Florida
I went swimming with Manatees in Homosassa Springs, Florida, near Homosassa Springs State Park. The manatees come in the river near the hot springs during colder periods to escape the cold water of the ocean. All the manatees in the video are actually wild and approach humans for interaction by choice. There are strict rules in interacting with manatees (do not feed them, only touch them if they approach you, etc) and I recommend taking a licensed tour to swim with them with a knowledgeable guide.
I recommend wmanateetours.net for an awesome time. We have gone with them a few times and are always happy with the experience.

The manatees at Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park, Florida. The Park operates a manatee help center, although most of the manatees just turn up at the center due to the warm water, and food, and are totally free to come and go.

Homosassa beach
After visiting Homosassa Wildlife Park, we headed back to our motel, but decided we needed to see the sea, so took a random road coastwards and found this unspoilt little beach after a drive through grassland.

12 hours after Hurricane Hermine left Citrus County, residents were just now finding the roads passable, even with over 3 ft of water still covering most of its roads.
