Manatee season is here on Florida's Nature Coast! Let us guide you through the beautiful

Chassahowitzka River for a truly unforgettable kayaking experience. Connect with manatees on the

most natural waterway in Homosassa.  This scenic and undeveloped river provides endless

opportunities to encounter manatees in a natural setting. Enjoy passive observation away from the

big crowds and watch these majestic manatees as they play, feed, and rest. Manatees are very curious creatures who like to interact, often times nudging your kayak along or doing flips and rolls.

We keep our group sizes small to maintain a personal and serene experience that is enjoyable for all.
