CRYSTAL RIVER AND HOMOSASSA, FLORIDA OFFER AQUATIC ADVENTURES FOR SPRING, SUMMER TRAVELERS
Discover world-class fishing, manatee encounters, scalloping, fish-to-fork dining and more
For most travelers, a visit to Florida simply must include some wet and wild fun on the water. Situated on the Gulf of Mexico, about 75 minutes North of Tampa, Crystal River and the surrounding cities of Homosassa, Inverness and Floral City are defined by water like few other places in the world. There is a spectacular labyrinthine of spring-fed rivers, manatee-filled bays, and pristine lakes, making it a popular option for world-class fishing – starting with the first of two snook seasons (March 1 to April 30) – and some of the most unique aquatic adventures ever.
