    Bubba Booking is excited to announce our partnership with Crystal River Watersports, a company that’s helped set the standard for ecotourism on Florida’s Nature Coast. The family owned business stands by its moto "Observing and Preserving Nature Above, In, and Under Water." The staff blends their passion for nature with an unmatched friendliness and deep knowledge of King’s Bay, home to hundreds of manatees.

    The city of Crystal River the self-proclaimed “Home of the Manatee”, was incorporated in 1903 and is the only place in the US you can legally swim with these beautiful water cows. The city is home to Kings Bay, who’s spring fed-fed water keeps the temperature around 72 degrees year-round, making it an attractive spot for manatees during the winter months when the water in the Gulf of Mexico cools. During peak season, the area is home to around 400 of the friendly creatures.

    The chance to get in the water and swim alongside manatees is a surreal experience. The company offers several different ways to get under water, including snorkeling and scuba packages of varying length. The staff at Crystal River Watersports are dedicated to their craft and all hold PADI diving certifications. This means you are in good hands if you’d like to start a new hobby and learn to safely dive for the first time. The company holds the PADI 5-Star Resort Designation recognizing the strength of their training programs.

    The fun doesn’t stop with Manatees. Eagles, pelicans, alligators, otters, boars, and dolphins make up the supporting cast for your nature cruises. Nature cruises are a perfect way to explore the area while staying dry above water. Crystal River Watersports offers you a first-row seat to observe mammals in their environment. It’s the perfect combination of entertainment, preservation, and education. We look forward to helping you get above and below water with Crystal River Watersports in the near future.
