I make no apologies that I don't view life from the same side of the coin as everyone else, and this is one of those places where you can shuck everything and just be yourself. So that's what I did. After greeting the Hostess, I got a comfy chaise in a shaded nook, took off the "shackles" of the every day, sprayed myself thickly with sun screen and joined the folks in the pool. Conversation and community is what was shared. No one was judged by size or weight, no one was preyed upon and that is what makes this place -very- comfortable. If you enjoy being in your own skin, come down to the pool party for ladies every Wednesday - ladies free, Gents are $20. There are foam parties once a month.

I was quite thankful. The kayaks were fun and we were left to our devices to explore. Isaiah was cool and very laid back. We were also a half hour late coming back and they were totally cool with it. Thank you! I can't believe I saw the baby manatees. I literally cried. Cons: I was surprised they just let us out with no real guide! It was cool but I'm surprised they trusted us. We kinda got lost the first 90mins and didn't know where we going but eventually we got to the area where the manatees were gathering. A bit crowded and I felt bad everyone so close to the protected species. Overall a super a cool experience. We went during manatee festival in January so it was a bit crowded but not overwhelming. It was a beautiful day with beautiful site seeing. Def recommend!

We rented paddle-boards for 3 hours to go visit Three Sister Springs at the Crystal River Wildlife Refuge, and it did NOT disappoint! You cannot swim at Three Sister Springs unless you arrive by watercraft as the refuge is protected, so going on an adventure via paddle-board was a nice relaxing way to explore the area. We saw multiple manatees and even got to swim with them when they came in the refuge (SUCH A COOL EXPERIENCE)! The coolest thing about the manatees was how much trust they put in the people visiting their home. There was a mom and calf swimming right up to people, and I thought how cool it was that she put that much trust into her surroundings as to show off her baby. I highly recommend checking out this company next time you're visiting the area!

And even pointed us to a cove that homes a lot of turtles and alligators. We saw it all! They have volunteers overseeing the 3 sisters springs, to help monitor the safety of the manatees (and scold ignorant people lol). Great time! If you're unsure, let me assure you.. just book.

Once on the island, we were off to roam around, see the old fort and look for shells. There was no lack of shells or photo ops. After this, we boarded again to go just a little ways down the shore to the snorkeling area. If you've never been snorkeling before, this is a good place to start. The water is pretty shallow, but we saw plenty of fish (different types and sizes), sea urchins, and a couple other funky looking creatures. Sadly, no manatees, but the dolphins being so close on the way in were consolation enough. If you've snorkeled before, this portion may not offer you much. Overall, we were pretty satisfied. Great weather, activities all seemed to go as advertised, and the price was fine per person.
