Three Sisters Springs recently saw a record-breaking number of visitors, in the form of both manatees and humans.

On Thursday, researchers counted a record number of manatees hanging out in Three Sisters Springs and Kings Bay.

They counted 797 manatees, which smashed the previous record of 657, which was set in 2012.

The number varies according to the tides and the weather. When temperatures drop, the manatees gather in the warm waters provided by the springs.

As for the humans, the county also welcomed nearly 137,000 visitors last year, representing an 8 percent increase over 2013.
