Crystal River Watersports has been a family owned tour center for over 20 years.  We focus on providing sustainable Eco responsible opportunities for people to enjoy the Nature Coast of Florida.

“Observing and Preserving Nature Above, In, and Under Water”

CRWS was one of the first companies to become a member of the Save the Manatee Club Guardian Guide program.  Our adherence to the principles ensures a sound ecological experience for the guests at the same time protecting the manatees.

Similarly, Crystal River Watersports has been a charter member of the Manatee Eco-Tourism Association of Citrus County (M.E.T.A.) striving to balance the magical interaction and learning about manatees while minimizing adverse impacts on the manatees.
