Those manatees are amazing creatures! Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@stealth_yellow]

Can’t wait to get back to Florida. Great videos. Hi From England.

[@JoeSmith-lr3fo]

Man I remember when this channel didn't have many subscribers, Kelly this is amazing. Keep it up

[@howardlashbrook1657]

thanks for all the underwater footage, especially the underneath view. and it's good to see you doing things with your mom.stay safe, summer is on the way

[@samTollefson]

I think that is the first Manatee I've seen without prop scars. Wonderfull!

[@jamesstavros3680]

Good Video Kelly. Always a plus to have mom with you ( plus you can put her to work paddling).

[@mackgreen4473]

I like how u spend time with ur mom nice video

[@vladimpaler9274]

Manatee is like a big swimming teddy bear 💙

[@rob379lqz]

Actually, they look like giant uncooked pork sausages... same great taste, but without all the fat (7%).

[@cameroneagle4370]

I'd say it's more like a manatee

[@floridafarms6066]

Taste like beef, they are not native to Florida, they are cute, love swimming with them. The babies are adorable

[@lonnycapps9945]

Kelly that was some of the most amazing Manatee footage I have ever seen! Thank you for all your hard work!

[@stevenandrade7349]

Great video!!! I like the sea cows, they move so graceful in the water..

[@edmilkovitz297]

That looked like a pretty awesome day. Very cool that they let you swim that close to them.

[@bluereef9530]

Once again Kelly brought us another awesome video. Totally different and educational. Thanks for sharing .

[@grahamrobinson3125]

Kelly seeing mama manatee and baby manatee must have been such a lovely moment swimming along side both of them and getting great video footage awesome work kelly❤❤😀😀💋💋

[@bubbagail7450]

Great vid Kelly. Love the manatee's. It's also amazing how some species of fish can survive in fresh and salt water.

[@kopenhagenkid]

Great video Kelly nice to see your mom in the video have a great time

[@tpledger100]

[@bandagrex]

Thanks for being real. Love your videos .

[@ravensfan7986]

I'm from Maryland and visited the springs about a month ago. Boated down the same canal. We have property that will take you to the springs by boat down stream. Love to see it

[@ravensfan7986]

Also hospital hole is so awesome. Got to see a lot of baby manatees

[@brucecox587]

Those things are so big but so gentle. I liked the view you show from under water. Nice to see a young one as well. It shows the manatee is doing well and not too stressed from lack of food or harrassment from people. 👍👍

[@mickkev]

Manatee is such a sweet and gentle animal.

[@davesjenn3727]

Nice to have the solitude that diving gives you guys...you don't have to contend with the surface traffic or the murky water. What a nice and peaceful atmosphere :-)

[@JG-The_Immortal_One]

Great video Kelly, now I see where you get your looks from. you have a gorgeous mom! Y’all stay safe and God Bless!

[@rickodell884]

[@marcelogartner9450]

Nice and beautiful snorkeling! In Brazil we have another species of those gentle mammals. Great!

[@superfanphoto4833]

Dear Kelly, what a beautiful and placid place is the one that has shown us, what beautiful creatures the manatees are, in any case you and your mother are also beautiful, thank you very much for sharing, bless you and your mother, and take good care of yourself

[@ervinsmoviecorner8748]

Awesome job, Kelly!❤️❤️

[@BobCaseyAerial]

The shot i really liked Started @8:16...Cue'd the music, the school of fish, the dive down and the Shot looking back up...Awesome shot..

[@jenniferdubourg3229]

Kelly I just wanted to tell you that I had a family emergency yesterday afternoon and have literally been on the phone almost ever since my anxiety was thru the roof I hadn't eaten yet today and once I finally got a moment all I wanted to do was to make sum food and sit and watch this video of yours that I hadn't watched yet so I heated up sum spaghetti my favorite comfort food and sat and watched your video. I feel Soooo relaxed now my point of telling you all this is that I just absolutely Love your videos. I will be moving to FL in a few years so I can live a similar life free diving and fishing an such and you are such a kind wonderful person. I just wanted to tell you that you made me feel SO Much better through my hard time today. Thank You for all you do

[@IslandKey]

I’m so sorry to hear that. Having anxiety is not fun, I went through 2 anxiety attacks after my last break up people don’t understand untill they have it. I’m happy this video helped! Thank you for the kind words, where in Florida are you thinking?

[@jenniferdubourg3229]

I'm Sorry to hear that as well. That is very true though. Unless you've experienced it you just really can not relate. I'm so glad everything is working out well for you :0) Gabe is such a silly person I Love seeing you guys together its really great. Well I have Family in Key West, Orlando, and Palm Springs so I really haven't decided yet. My uncle lives in Orlando he was a voice over for a few of the rides at Universal Studios for like 30years which is pretty cool but my Aunt passed away last year (his wife)so I might go somewhere around that area. Not 100% sure yet though I still have time to decide. All I know is for the longest time I've wanted to move out there and live off the Ocean. It'll be a few years yet but I'm sure you'll be continuing to grow on here all the way up until then and after so I'll probably be hitting you up for advice on my dive gear and everything surrounding it when I get there :0) I can't wait. I learned how to swim when I was 2 and haven't looked back lolll being in/at the Ocean is by far my favorite place to be

[@brucesione1652]

Beautiful for water awesome trip with your mom! I’m going there this coming Spring I cannot wait! Beautiful animal!🤙

[@grahamrobinson3125]

Kelly loved the video of you spending some quality time with your mam laughing and jokeing about your mams paddling skills and then seeing your favourite animal under water a baby manatee witch was so cute ❤❤😀😀💋💋

[@pattibrown1809]

Beautiful!❤❤

[@1spyfinder]

You are a kindred spirit. Love your videos. Love the water, wildlife, diving, spearfishing, investigating, learning, & just taking in the Florida vibe. It gives me soul-satisfying peace. I had a 20+ yr military career. Deployments to Iraq & Afghanistan. 10+ yrs as a Fed. Investigator. Going to retire in FL. Your vids plus vacations hold me over til then. Thanks.

[@IslandKey]

Oh man! Thank you 🙏🏼 you will enjoy the retired Florida life

[@1spyfinder]

@@IslandKey I am sure I will. Something about the salt-smell in the air, lapping of the water in a bay, or the sound of the rolling surf on the beach that makes my heart glad. My wife & I have lived in Florida different time in our lives. It has become home. Live in D.C. working for the Fed gov’t. We plan to retire summer of ‘22, move there, buy a small house, a big boat, and have fruit trees in the yard. We love your videos. Very well done! Don’t ever stop making them. Best to you and your Mom!

[@BasicFishingNZ]

far out its always an amazing feeling to see rare marine mammals. underwater shots were amazing as

[@chucksmith5002]

That was cool to see . All those Snappers no wonder there a little hard to find in the saltwater there all here . Thank for sharing Kelly

[@GeorgiaRiverBoys]

Super cool dive. Love your channel you dive a lot of the same things we do. Good job!

[@soillife1]

Great video. We have been there. Grandpa lived off 19 close to Hudson. It was a favorite to visit spring break .

I skipped at Hernando Jr High in 8th grade, with my best friend, to ride our bikes there decades ago. That place is awesome. I live up north now, but can't wait to go back.

[@bionicsjw]

Many times when we go Florida we go to Blue Springs State Park. It's loaded with Manatees, Tarpon and Redfish.

[@rob379lqz]

Why do they call them Mullet, when they don’t even have hair?

[@Retrieverman1]

I am moving to about 20 minutes from that park. I cannot wait.

I swam with probably about 20 of them in manatee springs, coolest experience ever! Although they didn’t do any tricks for me! This winter was our first time ever checking out the springs and we loved it!

[@S550STANG]

Was snorkeling in Mexico a few years ago and a manatee swam up right beside me and scared the hell out of me! Once I figured out what it was I had a big sigh of relief!

[@KMLifeadventure]

Lol

[@mccainridercampbell]

Liked the video and your mom, I would have never guessed she snorkels, that's cool!

[@mattgarland1776]

What up kelly!!! Glad to have a video today

[@Dn1sdr]

Enjoyed the video. Next time I'm down that way I will check out the River and try to dive with some manatees.

[@billwhite7099]

I just love when you talk with your mask on. Btw when I was kid in the 70s we use to tube the Weeki Wachee, before it was so crowded it was awesome, and a lot more clear. You should check out the Rainbow River sometime it's super clear.

[@davebrunner1272]

It was really clear in the 1960's. The place where they are is down stream several miles from the source and can be affected alot from rain runoff from the swamps But even the head spring is not that clear any more, thanks to people.

[@lenfarneth]

I skipped school and my best friend and I rode our bikes there about 20 miles from Brooksville to swim there in about 1975! It was the clearest water I ever saw.

[@ippaku]

I love the rainbow river whenever I go visit my family in Ocala we stop by there they have a pontoon boat and we just chill and relax and some of us jump in and enjoy the ride down and yeah it’s great we have a great time

[@streetbeast4x455]

Another Hreat video the manatee where kool to watch looks like a nice place to snorkel and Kayak

[@ReelCoolAdventures]

that looks awesome!

[@waltere.mellin3537]

WOW! I never realized that manatees were all muscle, that explains why they are always looking for warmer waters.

[@IslandKey]

Yup exactly

[@edwardherrera5989]

[@survivingfaith]

Mullet = fish tacos!! That spring looks so beautiful, thank you for sharing!

[@johnnyfeathers2567]

Thanks for another cool video Kelli and tell Mom we said 👋 Hi!

[@ronaldsmith1282]

There's so much more to Kelly than her beauty. Interesting, smart, funny too.

[@scable-eq7bp]

Very cool video Kelly,awesome footage, nice to see your mom again in the video. Have never seen a Manatee act like a dolphin but have seen two do some thing strange last year up on the Ocklawaha River at the north side boat ramp at Moss Bluff. They acted like they were fighting, showing a very aggressive behavior, but after talking to a park ranger and showing him the footage, he said it was mating season and most likely it was two male Manatees competing to improve the chances of breeding with a receptive female.....

[@milleb17020]

Ate at upper deck few years ago, was in FL visiting my brother. I live in TX. First time I saw a manatee and baby swim through by the park and restaurant area I was just like WOW it is beautiful in that erea. Then we all went to a spot that was popular for its sunsets on the ocean. Best fun ever! ♥️'d it.

[@aforman1951]

Last time I was there was 1975. None of those houses were near the water. One fishing shack on stilts over the main spring. The guy that lived there invited us in for lunch and treated us like he had known us for life. One of my fondest memories of livin in FL. Water was much clearer then as well. Main spring had three holes and looked like a bowling ball.

[@LOVEMCHUNCKY]

Good evening Kelly and Family Nice peaceful day spent with mom ❤️ Awesome Manatees are cool 😊 I remember when I was about 8 or 9 the first time I ever had a encounter with a manatee in Ft.lauderdale we were fishing from the bank and what looked like a covert sticking out from the bank and I stepped out on it and it was a manatee and he or she backed out from the bank and in the water i went hehehehe lol but the manatee was fine and swam away 😋 Y’all take care always 🤠❤️😘 Love Y’all

[@Filetamerican]

Yessss!!!!!!! You make my day

[@chuckstyes3196]

hey Kelly :) This is one of my fav spring rivers in Fl.! I too was there a few weeks ago when it was cold, but I also went this past Sunday (28th) and it was just like summer time, it was just awesome! I got a few manatees and lots of other fish but haven't had a chance to edit vids yet. I actually learned something from this video though, I never knew that Hospital Hole had a spring in it too. I just thought it was a really deep hole like a few of the others in the river, but that's really cool! thanks, and keep up your great work! love your vids and Gabe's too! :)

[@BadBamajama]

That place is called "Hospital Hole" aka fish hospital. There's an interesting legend about the sick and weary fish coming up river for refuge. I've lived in Spring Hill the past 20 years and still never get tired of diving hospital hole and paddling the Weeki Wachee (Seminole for "Little Spring, Winding River").
