10. Make friends with manatees (or at least paddle with them). 

Also in November: Manatee season begins in parts of Florida with warmer water. One such spot is Crystal River (about 80 miles north of Tampa), where you can watch the marine mammals as you paddle in clear-bottom kayaks. Book a two-hour tour with Get Up and Go Kayaking. While you'll also spot dolphins, turtles, and an array of fish, the manatees are the main attraction.
