The manatees are an endangered species and the have come to the Florida springs year-round to find shelter and food. In the winter months the manatee population can reach several hundred and during the summer the average count is 80. These are “gentle giants” in the water with no teeth. During their cruise guests may have the chance to be filmed underwater with the manatees and then purchase the video.
