👧🏼 Join Toby as she explores Three Sisters Springs in Crystal River, Florida!

🏊‍♀️ Watch as Toby swims the entire entrance AND all three springs.

🌊 Be amazed by the bright blue, crystal clear spring water!

🤿 Snorkel with Toby as she examines underwater springs bubbling from the earth.

🍁 Fall in Florida may not look like fall in the northern United States, but we still have changing leaves that contrast perfectly against our turquoise water! Can you find bright orange leaves in the video?

🛶 We entered the spring through the outer channel. Although kayaks and paddleboards were allowed during the time of year we visited, we chose to swim into the springs instead of paddling. Kayak launches are located at several locations around King's Bay (the area leading to Three Sisters). Rates and fees vary by launch site. Two launch sites we recommend are ones at Hunter Springs and King's Bay Park.

⏰ Our visit took place on a Sunday in late November, with light traffic on the water.

🔄 We paddled approximately two miles, round-trip.

🐄 Watch out for sea cows! From December through March, Three Sisters is closed to kayaks and watercraft due to it being peak manatee season. Although visits are still allowed, paddling INTO the springs themselves is not.

🚫 No alcohol of any kind is permitted in the springs area. Single-use packaging is also not permitted (bags of chips, sandwich bags, plastic bottles, etc). Florida Wildlife Officers and volunteeers monitor the springs to ensure rules are followed.

⚠️ Tying to trees, roots, and foliage is not permitted within Three Sisters Springs. Standing and climbing on rocks is also not permitted. Both rules are in place in order to help stop erosion along the banks.

🤚 Feeding and harassing wildlife is against the law. Be especially cautious of manatees and always remember to practice PASSIVE observation. Do not chase, touch, or pursue them. It is ILLEGAL to pursue a manatee or to initiate contact with one.

🌞 Florida is the Sunshine State, so don't forget to pack waterproof sunscreen!
