Three Sisters Springs
River · Crystal River, Florida
A cluster of spring vents in Crystal River whose 72F water draws hundreds of West Indian manatees every winter, and the only place in the United States where you are legally permitted to get in the water with wild manatees. In cold snaps the spring fills so completely that the animals are shoulder to shoulder, and a boardwalk above lets you see it without entering at all.
123 Northwest Highway 19, Crystal River, Florida, 34428, United States
