As we enter Manatee Awareness month and anticipate the return of Florida’s gentle marine giants, join Manatee Lagoon Saturday, Nov. 16, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. to celebrate the annual Manatee Season Kickoff, a free event that’s fun for the whole family.

Participate in a variety of free games and activities as our environmental exhibitors teach you about conservation and this year’s theme: safe boating. Plus, the first 200 visitors will receive a complimentary waterproof phone pouch.
