Why our Manatee Tours are so Successful
A unique and successful snorkel manatee tour comes from education on how to interact with the manatee and the guides extensive in water experience gives you just that. Our guides are trained to PADI dive master level or higher both in water skills and environmental knowledge. The dive master educates on the manatees and the manners of being in the water with them while on your manatee snorkel. They enter the water with you so that both you and the Manatees have an enjoyable time on this experience of a lifetime. This in water snorkel experience is sometimes new to family members that do not have very many chances to snorkel. Our guides are very accommodating on the trip and assist new snorkelers so everyone enjoys this experience. Also available on your trip are the memories that we video in water and make a DVD upon the return to the store. This makes for a great gift to show others of your wonderful trip.
