Reviews: Most Popular 3hr Manatee Swim Tour + In-Water Guide!
Guest User2025-10-31
Amazing guide Eli and Boat Captain Derek guided us and found us the most amazing experience of snorkeling with a mother and calf in the spring itself. Hot Chocolate on board was a superb way to warm us up on the way back to the dock after certainly a bucket list item ticked off. Felt totally safe and secure both in and out the water. Totally recommend the private group as you get the undivided attention of both Derek and Eli, not only learning about the Manatees but about the devastating effects of the last 2 hurricanes on not just the local flaura and fauna but also on the local houses and humans, and why houses are now being built on stilts. Thank you for an unforgettable experience.
Reviews: Small Group Manatee Snorkel Tour with In-Water Guide and Photographer
Guest User2024-07-22
This was seriously one of the coolest experiences of my life! I was in Florida for a work conference Mon-Wed and wanted to do something fun on Sunday. I was originally booked for Sunday afternoon, but the Salty Siren staff called me on Saturday to see if I could move to the morning tour for better weather, visibility, tide level, and overall experience. I am so glad they took the time to do this. Although it involved some crazy travel logistics to get there by 8:00 AM from another state, it was absolutely worth the limited sleep. Captain Jessica and Marissa (in-water guide & photographer) were AMAZING! There were only 5 people on our tour, which allowed for individualized attention and photo opportunities. We observed a much larger tour group doing all the wrong things, which we knew from the educational intro video we watched prior to getting on the boat. Salty Siren focuses on education and passive observation. Just float quietly near your guide, and the manatees will stay near you for a really long time. I think we spent over an hour with a mama and baby manatee, watching them feed. We even got to see the baby nursing. The water in some of the areas is a little murky right now because of an invasive algae, but you can still see the manatees well. If you just be calm and still, they come right up to you. After we interacted with the manatees, Jessica and Marissa took us to a nearby spring with much clearer water, which allowed for some fun photos for each tour participant. I would recommend this company and tour experience to anyone who is at least minimally comfortable in the water. You hang on to a pool noodle the entire time, and you only need to know how to doggy-paddle to move around...hands only, no kicking so as not to scare the manatees. I had never snorkeled before, and it was very easy to learn. At the end of our adventure, we were served our choice of coffee, hot chocolate, Manatee Mocha, etc. Then we returned to the office where we immediately got to view the photos and videos to decide if we wanted to purchase them (about $40 gets you access to all the pics and videos from your tour).
