Crystal River Watersports:<\/h3>\n

Swim with manatees, go scuba diving, plan a fishing trip, go scalloping and more with family owned Crystal River Watersports. Marathon Coach Assistant Marketing Manager Miki Markovich took the manatee tour during the off-season and still saw the curious, docile creatures firsthand.<\/p>\n

Dade City Shopping:<\/h3>\n

During a 2017 open house and pre-rally event, Marathon Coach Florida hosted a scavenger hunt adventure featuring some of our favorite shops in Dade City. Attendees, donned in whimsical hats, led teams through the picturesque town as clues guided them to many of the area\u2019s finest shops, including Another Man\u2019s Treasure, Flint Creek Outfitters, European Emporium, Angel Tea Room, Dog Mania and Cats, Quilts on Plum Lane and Lunch on Limoges.<\/p>\n

Clearwater Beaches:<\/h3>\n

Marathon Florida Service Manager Joe Stefanczuk likes to relax at Sand Key just over the bridge from Clearwater Beach. Of course, there are lots of other area beaches fit to explore. Clearwater Beach was named number one in the U.S. on TripAdvisor\u2019s list of Top Beaches for 2019, 2018 and 2016, and was number four in 2017.<\/p>\n
