I was browsing the website for Blue Springs SP as I know the weather has been cold in Florida which attracts the manatees to shelter - apparently the park staff counted 524. Sad we can't be there to visit but a quick look at the webcams is worth it.

We usually visit the power station at Apollo Beach which has a fantastic manatee viewing area. It’s open from November through to spring. Last January there were hundreds of manatees whereas we often see maybe a dozen or so. If anyone is staying on the Gulf Coast it’s definitely worth a visit.

Fort Myers power station has a lot of manatee. Years ago FM PS (LCEC) stopped releasing warm water until the big boys stepped in - it now keeps so many manatee warm. Superb to see them - click HERE for the web site.
