Salty Siren Tours, Crystal River FL

Seriously SO FUN! The captains were so kind and fun people! They genuinely know and love manatees! They’ll take care of you! Have all the gear you need and take you to the best spots!

My husband and I came down for a quick trip to Tampa, I've been wanting to swim with manatees for a while, and was so excited when I saw Salty Siren offered small boat tours at a great price, I jumped right on it. It was everything I hoped and so much more. Everyone was so friendly and made sure the trip was a great time. Can't wait for next time! Thanks for a great trip!

Captains Kim and Ed were amazing. They were fun, kind, informative and great at their jobs. You can tell they really enjoy doing these tours. They were awesome with our 6 year old the entire time. I can not speak highly enough about their operation. I recommend them to anyone looking for a manatee tour.

This place was awesome! Captain Kimberly was super knowledgeable and made the experience unforgettable! The 3 springs were beautiful and the manatees were so pretty! To top it off she made her special manatee mocha which was delicious! I Definitely would recommend stopping by if your in the area it’s affordable and the experience is once in a lifetime! Thanks again captain Kimberly and captain Ed!

Great tour guide who is down to earth, and went above and beyond to get us a great experience with some manatees.

This was one of the best tours I’ve ever done! Kim & Ed made sure to find the best spot possible & we got to swim with mama manatees & their babies! It was such a surreal experience. Highly recommended, especially when you want to experience a tour with locals who are truly loving these animals!

Such an amazing experience! Kim and Ed are very knowledgeable and want to give you the best experience. I would highly recommended supporting this family owned business for your manatee adventures. They are some of the nicest people we’ve met!

Kim was so so nice and cared about the little details for our trip! She took awesome pictures and videos of us with the manatees!

Captain Kim and Captain Ed were awesome and made our little group of six feel very comfortable. The small group was one of the things that makes the Salty Siren manatee tours stand out among all of the other companies: even though we started out as three couples who didn't know each other, Kim and Ed's warm and friendly manner made it easy to get to know everyone and we all felt like we had quality time with both the manatees and Kim and Ed!

Stop! You don't need to look any further. Book with this company. Family-owned. Safe. You get more than you pay for. Knowledgeable. Kind. Adventure loving. Great experience for any age.

Stop giving your money to large tour companies that don't care about you or what you get out of it. Give it to a company like this one who will work hard to make sure you get the experience you're trying to have.

We had a great time seeing manatee in the wild as they fed. The crew was very knowledgeable, welcoming and accommodating to our needs. The group was small which was so nice.

Friendly crew. They knew where to find the manatees in places where no other people were crowded around.

This was a great experience! Great price for what you get. Small groups on boat which make it so much more personalized. The Captain and first mate made the trip fun and relaxing. Great comfortable boat. Excellent equipment snorkel equipment. Nice gift shop with some really nice manatee themed apparel and homemade jewelry. This couple run business really goes the extra mile to make it a day you will never forget. HIGHLY RECOMEND!

Me and my family had a great time if we could give them 10 stars we would highly recommend we will be back

We had a wonderful time meeting the manatees. The tour was wonderful and the education we received about the species was an eye opener.
