Three Sisters Springs is a protected manatee sanctuary. This pristine spring pumps out millions of gallons of crystal clear, freshwater everyday. Manatees are attracted to the relatively warm (72 degree) spring waters during the colder winter months. But many stay here and make it their home all year.

Manatees are gentle, plant eating mammals, that are naturally curious. Often manatees will approach your paddle board or kayak and are very friendly. You may even get to see a baby manatee in tow.
