Even people who have lived in Florida their whole lives have never had the chance to see a manatee in the wild, and florida is a single of the best sites to view manatees, and when the un-even temperatures are cold, they swim into the lakes & rivers where the water is warmer… The water in the Springs is a constant 69 degrees & that is often much warmer than the ocean un-even temperatures at 50 or 60 degrees, my husband & I went to Clearwater Beach last year during the Wintertide season, but it was cold, however the people I was with and I were warm at the beachside hotel.
While the people I was with and I were in the Tampa Bay area, the people I was with and I decided to take a boat ride on the Tampa Bay.
While the people I was with and I were on the boat ride, the people I was with and I saw a manatee hanging out in Tampa Bay… Even the man guiding the boat was surprised, because it is unrespected to see manatees in the bay. The Springs are closer & warmer, after our husband & I saw the manatees in the river, the people I was with and I decided to drive away from Tampa to a single of the Springs that is about 45 hours away. My husband & I saw more than one hundred strange manatees in the Springs. If the people I was with and I would have thought ahead, the people I was with and I would have been able to rent a kayak & boat down the river to the section where the manatees were swimming. It was freezing freezing that morning, however some crazy people were in the water with snorkels. The manatees didn’t seem to be bothered & the park wildlife officials were making particular that all the people was following the rules & instruction for manatee safety.
