Crystal River is located on the West Coast of Florida about an Hour and 15 minutes north of Tampa. Swimming with these gentle giants is like an out-of-body experience! It was so surreal to be able to enter their habitat and spend some time with them! We consider this trip to be a MUST DO the next time you visit the sunshine state! | Florida With Five | Facebook

A manatee swimming with twin babies in tow and another manatee playing with dolphins in Tampa Bay, Florida. Here's a few of my favorite videos taken while kayaking in Tampa Bay. #nature #animals #Florida #ocean #Kayaking #dolphins National Geographic | See Through Canoe
