Manatee Viewing Center

For a few months a year, they open up a Manatee Viewing Center in Apollo Beach (about 25 minutes from where I live). You can get pretty close on the pier to view these giant seas creatures. They also have an education center and butterfly sanctuary. It runs on donations so it very affordable.
