The Crystal River and Homosassa areas of the “Nature Coast” are a true fisherman’s paradise. With over twenty different species of fish inhabiting our local waters annually, it’s no wonder why anglers travel from all over the “World” to try their luck at a fishing experience of a lifetime. Crystal River is home to the “WORLDS” largest population of the endangered West Indian Manatee. It’s also the only destination in the United States that permits swimming with these gentle giants.
