Boat Tour
Leaving your ONE WAY MOVERS New York City To Florida in the parking lot you
can experience the manatees from a tour boat. The boat excursion on the Orange
River give you a great opportunity to observe these magnificent sea mammals in
their natural habitat. In winter they prefer the warm waters of the Orange River
as Manatees are susceptible to cold and in cooler water temperatures will
develop bumps similar to frost bite on their sensitive skin. Embarking on your
tour please remember the hats, sunglasses, cameras and sunscreen that you packed
into your ONE WAY MOVERS New York City To Florida, also your cooler if you want
to bring one.
Manatee Facts
These massive sea creatures grow to 800 pounds and require at least 32 pounds
of food per day. As herbivores (vegetarians) the manatees dine on sea lettuce
and sea grasses as well as other sea plants. They appear to graze on the sea
gardens similar to cattle grazing in a pasture. Perhaps that is why they are
also referred to as sea cows. When first observed by Christopher Columbus men,
the sailors were convinced that they were seeing the half-fish, half-man
creatures of the sea.
Since the manatees are threatened by cold waters during the winter months
they search for warmer spots. These locations can be the warm water springs
along the Florida shoreline. Electrical power plants send warm water into the
inland channels, which are havens for the manatees. They are slow moving mammals
swimming approximately 32 kilometers an hour. They really cannot get out of the
way of speeding motorboats.
Manatee Protection
The state of Florida is and has been greatly concerned with the welfare of
this natural treasure. Laws have been passed to ensure their safety. The Florida
Manatee Sanctuary Act lets the state name certain areas as manatee sanctuaries
and establish speed limits for boaters. In winter months at the Crystal River
refuge boater, swimmers and divers are denied access because the manatees gather
there at that time. If anyone is found to have slain or harmed a manatee he/she
is subject to a $500 fine.
Educational Programs
Manatee World has designed great programs to explain the manatees and their
life cycle. It also encourages becoming caretakers of these wonderful sea
creatures. Videos and slide presentations along with puppets help explain the
manatees.
Gift Shop
After an exciting and informative be sure to visit the gift shop where you
