A new place, new town, new adventures.
Crystal River is a coastal city in western Florida. The main reason for our time here is to swim with the Manatee’s, they are gentle animals. Manatee’s are large, fully aquatic, mostly herbivorous marine mammals sometimes known as sea cows.
There are several areas to swim with the Manatee’s. We found an area that is close to Sister Springs Park, Hunter Springs. They have a nice parking area(paid), clean restrooms and there is a beach to sit and enjoy your day.
It’s a great area to launch your paddle boards or kayaks. And take a paddle over to visit Three Sister Springs.
It makes for a great day, take a picnic with lunch, paddle out to visit the manatee, and sit on the beach and relax.
Here is a link for the paddle board that the Captain uses.
