Explore one of Florida's most scenic waterways from a 100% clear kayak! Grab your window seat to a view like no other with the opportunity to hopefully spot a manatee or two or even 30 on our coldest mornings during manatee season! We foster a commitment to education, stewardship and responsible ecotourism so learn about manatees from our team of Guardian Guides, the only company on the Weeki Wachee River certified by Save the Manatees Club!
Riding in a clear kayak has the advantage of greater visibility of manatees and their underwater world! These large aquatic mammals call the Weeki Wachee River + surrounding waterways home all year long but during cooler months more manatees use the Weeki Wachee and surrounding waterways as their warm water winter habitat (November 14-March 31st).
What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Follow the signs to designated kayak tour parking. Proceed on foot to kayak launch to meet your guide. These are small group tours therefore we cannot accommodate late guests. Individual guests cannot exceed 250 pounds and the combined weight of two guests cannot exceed 425 pounds.
What to expect
The first portion of the paddle is through the quiet and calm coastal waters where we paddle past a Bald Eagle's nest with a chance to see them nesting October-May (tide permitting). We then paddle up the clear waters of the Weeki Wachee, Florida's most iconic and popular freshwater spring for recreation! Weekends and holidays can be busy! Anticipate a great workout as current and wind are sometimes stronger November-March. Our guides will be sure to snap your pics and give some awesome facts about the area at our several picturesque stopping points! We stay in our kayaks.
