| Manatee Flossing on a line |
Crystal River is known for swimming with the Manatees. We did not swim with the Manatees, but we did go on a two hour pontoon boat tour to see them. We could have easily done it in our own dingy, but the guide Tommy B. was really informational, and it was a much better way to get Mom out as I don't think three of us in the Dingy would of been a good idea. We saw lots of Manatees, and opted not to swim with them. We dropped anchor in Kings Bay here in Crystal River Sunday and we planned to only stay a couple nights, but the winds picked up which would have made for a bad day on the water to Tarpon Springs our next stop. So we stayed 3 nights on Anchor in the Bay. We went for a dingy ride and walk into town, I did some boat projects, Momma Donna caught up on some reading, napping, and soaking in the bay view from our waterfront patio. It is Tuesday Night as I write this and I had a full day working on the boat, also did a pump out at Pete's Pier Marina, Mom scored a Pete's Pier Jacket, and we topped our fresh water tanks off for some showers tonight. We leave at 0700 at sun up so no late night for us, bedtime for us weary travelers of the water.
Below are some pics from my new insta360 underwater camera. pretty cool pics. But most did not turn out well in the river where the water was mirky. Close to the natural springs where the water was clear these pics came out pretty nice.
