Wildlife Encounter and River Cruise at River Ventures

• You never know what will be discovered on this wildlife odyssey, as this area serves as one of the richest estuaries left on the Gulf of Mexico! Kings Bay is the second largest spring system in Florida, which is fed by dozens of freshwater springs spitting out more than 280 million gallons of fresh water daily! The bay serves as the headwaters for the Crystal River and is extremely unique and incredibly important to each animal species that depend on it for survival.

• We strive to educate and open all hearts to the necessity of protection. Wading birds, waterfowl, black-crowned night herons, wood storks, bald eagles, brown and white pelicans, osprey, red-tailed hawks, and of course the endangered manatee are just some of many animals that depend on this ecosystem to sustain themselves! On this Eco-tour, your Captain and Mother Nature will team up to ensure the most unforgettable, awe-inspiring time possible!

• Enjoy the sparkling springs of Crystal River?s idyllic King?s Bay. Learn about the ecosystem and the animals that depend on the refuge for their survival. If you are lucky we may even encounter manatees, dolphins, eagles, osprey, tarpon, or alligator in the best way possible -- their natural habitat.
