In this episode, we're showing you the best things to see and do in Crystal River, Florida which proudly claims the title of "Manatee Capital of the World." Hundreds of sea cows are drawn to the warm spring-fed waters of Kings Bay and Three Sisters Springs when temperatures in the Gulf of Mexico get too chilly for them to survive. Adventure seekers from all over the world flock here during winter months not only to catch a glimpse of these endangered gentle giants but to swim with them as well. This is the only place in the U.S. where vacationers can do so legally.

If you’re looking to spend time in Florida in a spot where you can really get in touch with nature, Crystal River and the surrounding area might just be what you’re looking for.

I live in Spring Hill, about a half hour from Homosassa. This area is a wonderful, old Florida experience! I love the archeological site!

This is a bucket-list item for me. I can't wait for an opportunity to go to the Three Sisters boardwalks!

I live a few miles from three sisters Springs. IMHO the Manatees love having human interaction and it is also beneficial for humans, like swimming with Dolphins. High vibration. ✌️
