Begin your adventure at the scenic launch site at Waterfront Social / The Port Hotel. Meet your professional guides, who will prepare your equipment and provide a full safety and manatee etiquette briefing. Learn how to paddle safely, where to go, and how to respectfully observe the gentle manatees that call Kings Bay home.

After your briefing, set out at your own pace to explore the calm, shimmering waters as the sun sets over the Gulf. Glide through mangrove-lined coves, spot coastal birds, and experience the peaceful beauty of Crystal River in the quiet evening light.

When you return, the team will assist with landing and equipment — no heavy lifting or getting wet required.
