Outdoors & Nature Insider

Kevin Mims

I'm a freelance writer and videographer, and spend most of my days exploring Florida's natural wonders from a kayak, a bike or rambling down a hiking trail. A Florida native living in Citrus County, you'll often find me watching the boats go by on the Homosassa River. I'm always sharing stories, photos and videos, so follow along and together we'll discover Florida's natural treasures.

Come on over and help celebrate the gentle giant during the 23rd Annual Florida Manatee Festival in Crystal River on Jan. 9-10. Fine art, crafts, food, and live music are just a few of the activities that will be going on downtown, and there will be manatee tours going on as well.

Crystal River is located about an hour north of Tampa on U.S. 19. You can't miss it! Admission to the event is just $2 for adults, and there's also a shuttle running to the downtown area from the Crystal River Mall.

For a complete schedule of events and information on tours, check out the Crystal River Chamber of Commerce website here. I'll see you in Crystal River!
