I spy with my little eye... EELGRASS!

Manatee Munching on eelgrass on the North Side of Kings Bay

We love seeing our sweet friends munching on the eelgrass we are planting in Crystal River! While we cannot control Mother Nature, we can control how we respond, and our resiliency to any challenges she may bring. Thank you Salty Siren Tours and Charters for sharing this video and highlighting our efforts as we continue to save Crystal River.

Here's the post with the terrific video of the eelgrass:

I spy with my little eye... EELGRASS! This video was taken this morning 5/5/25 on the North side of the Bay by in-water guide Robin. Why is this so significant?

Hurricanes Idalia and Helene caused catastrophic saltwater intrusion which affected our freshwater grass beds. However, thanks to the efforts of Save Crystal River our eelgrass is beginning to once again grow and thrive!
