Tons of Manatees at Blue Spring State Park - January 2023

In today's adventure we go to Blue Spring State Park to check out the manatees! There were tons of manatees too!! We've been wanting to check this state park out for awhile to see manatees in their natural environment! The manatees only come here during the winter months when it gets colder here in Florida! They come to the springs to stay warm! When we went there were 452 manatees that day! The springs were super clear and it was so fun to see so many manatees! We show you around Blue Springs State Park and all the different viewing areas for the manatees! We even get to see a couple baby manatees!! Have you ever been here or are you adding this to your list to do sometime? Let us know in the comments! We hope you enjoy the video!

    By far, our favorite vlog...it is so nice to see natural Florida. We've been to Crystal River in winter, but did not see anywhere close to this many manatees. Thank you Jenna and Dale!

    Such a beautiful place and I’m so happy you got up early for US! 😉. I lived in the area about 30 years ago and always loved visiting. Back then they allowed you to go into the spring if the manatee were in ..they had a strict rule not to approach them, but if they came up to you they might gently make contact and that was fine. That was pretty common and quite an experience 🥰. Thank you for sharing and I hope some viewers who are able make a donation to Save the Manatee… a great cause!

I have to convince my hubby though because he doesn’t ever want to see a alligator. I showed him the wooden walkways you were on, but he just isn’t sure about going out in the wilderness of Florida. Absolutely love seeing your adventures around Florida!

    Loved this trip! Thank you for sharing. We used to Glamp in several FL state parks and the spring parks were always amongst our favorites. And any parks with boardwalk trails too. I like nature, but I also have a healthy respect for it 🤣. Some of our favorites were Silver Springs, Ichetucknee Springs (pronounced Itch A Tuck Knee), Homosassa and Wakulla. Homosassa has a beautiful historical lodge there as well. Creature from the Black Lagoon filmed there too. Florida State Parks are some of the best in the country. Hope you get a chance to explore more. And you could do weekend trips as many have cabins to rent. Often affordable and you can go with friends and split the cost. It’s so fun! Take a crock pot, picnic food and wine. You’re all set! Not Spring related but you might look into Fargo State Park just over the FL state line if you want an awesome alligator experience. They have great cabins and you can rent a John boat on the cheap and drive out into the swamp and see tons of alligators. Sadly, after the major fire about a decade or 2 ago, the landscape is not as lush as it once was, but it’s coming back. It’s still an amazing experience. So many gators! If you ever want to know about Georgia Coast state parks, let me know. I know some good ones. 😉. With cabins! Not even kidding.
