Like being able to craft a bowling ball out of a coconut, learning to snorkel can make a tropical vacation even more fun. Trade pins for fins with this Groupon.

Manatees, we got to see some, swim with some and I managed to pet three of them! We also enjoyed a nice tour around the springs areas as well

“We accidentally came on the Saturday before our scheduled tour by mistake & the day was fully booked. We drove 3 hrs & were pretty bummed that we weren't going to be able to go out. Capt Dave overheard & immediately said he would get another boat & take us out (even though it was only us 2). He took us to numerous hot spots where the manatees are normally found. We were able to swim, play, & touch manatees. We were out for 2.5 hours & told him we were ready to head in & he offered to take us to more spots!! His customer service was exceptional. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. I would recommend wet suits, the water was chilly! Request Capt Dave- GREAT EXPERIENCE!!”
