• 
  

  Sorry, no furry friends!

  
  


• 
  

  Please plan to arrive 15 minutes prior to tour departure.

  
  


• 
  

  Please sign your waivers online prior to arriving for your tour (all guests, including minors). These will be sent to you in a separate "Action Required" email.

  
  


• 
  

  Sunscreen + bug spray will ruin the clarity of the kayaks so we ask that you apply it 15 minutes prior to tour departure as it is not permitted to be applied during the tour.

  
  


• 
  

  Exercise-type clothes are welcome. During the winter months, we encourage you to bring a jacket/windbreaker + socks because we do not allow shoes in the kayak (so please be prepared to take them off before the tour)!

  
  


• 
  

  Alcohol + smoking are prohibited throughout the Weeki Wachee River + on tour.

  
  


• 
  

  As a friendly reminder: our guides work on generosity from tips. If you haven’t already included gratuity at the time of booking, our guides very much appreciate a cash tip! We like to say, "If you enjoyed your ride, tip your guide!"

  
  


• 
  

  We do not exit the kayak for the duration of the tour as the Weeki Wachee is ecological sensitive + this policy preserves the integrity of the ecosystem for generations to come.
  
  
  We foster a commitment to education, stewardship + responsible ecotourism so learn about manatees from our team of Guardian Guides certified by Save the Manatees Club!

  
  


• 
  

  Remember that wildlife is wild + it's always a hope never a promise that we will see manatees! Nature is dynamic which means color + water clarity can change from day to day.

  
  


• 
  

  We do not always see manatees in clear water + take our guests to the areas where we are most likely to see wildlife based on the days conditions. This means sometimes we visit areas that don't have clear water!
