Experience the Weeki Wachee River and its surrounding waterways from a fresh perspective with this distinctive stand-up paddleboard tour! Stand-up paddleboarding offers enhanced visibility of manatees and their underwater environment. These gentle aquatic creatures reside in the Weeki Wachee River year-round, but during the cooler months, more manatees seek the warmth of the Weeki Wachee and nearby waterways as their winter refuge (November 14-March 31st).

Discover one of Florida’s most picturesque waterways and enjoy a unique view, with the chance to spot a manatee or several on the chilliest mornings! We are dedicated to education, stewardship, and responsible ecotourism, so learn about manatees from our team of Guardian Guides, certified by Save the Manatees! We are passionate about sharing our knowledge of these “sea cows” to ensure we can coexist with them for many years to come. A portion of each reservation is donated to manatee conservation efforts.
