It’s such a blast to be a dive guide for families visiting our area. THREE generations of divers right here, the youngest is 12. How great is that? Come dive, mermaid, or snorkel with manatees with me American Pro Diving Center!!!

As a Divemaster it’s paramount that I have high performance gear. As a Mermaid Instructor aesthetics are close in priority. Now I have both!! Rash guard by & Mask/snorkel by . I got mine at !!

SO EXCITED to announce I’ve changed locations to Paddletail Waterfront Adventures!!! It’s a brand new location so EVERYTHING is new…except the relationships I established years ago, as most of us worked together when I moved to Crystal River. It definitely feels like a homecoming, not starting all over. What does this mean for you? Same services I’ve been offering only in a new upscale location with upgraded gear! As a massive bonus, I’ll also be offering deep water fitness (to include mermaid fitness) at our sister location, American Pro Dive as well as mermaid classes there. Look for details & date announcements to be coming soon!!! Many thanks again to Paul Cross for continued leadership & massive action taking in our community!!

A FAQ is: What is the likelihood of seeing a baby on a tour? Very good! Manatee are still on the Threatened Species list, but the population overall is doing very good. ❤️ As with all our manatee tours, the colder the weather the more manatee you’ll see, definitely increasing your chance of seeing babies!
