Adrift Adventures is a Fort Walton Beach, Florida-based outfitter offering private charters and guided river and desert rafting, snorkeling, and backcountry tours.
Adrift Adventures operates a fleet of comfortable vessels and off-road vehicles led by licensed and certified captains and professional guides. The company’s Destin-area offerings include private dolphin-watching cruises for up to six guests and reef snorkel charters that visit man-made reefs and Crab Island on three- or six-hour trips. Beyond the Gulf, Adrift Adventures guides multi-day and single-day Colorado River rafting expeditions through Fisher Towers, Westwater Canyon, and Cataract Canyon, with options for morning, half-day, full-day, and multi-day itineraries.
Land-based excursions depart from the Moab area to explore Arches and Canyonlands National Parks, including backcountry 4x4 routes, Shafer Trail switchbacks, and combined day tours that cover both parks. All experiences emphasize safety, natural history, and local context; guides provide information on geology, wildlife, and regional film history at well-known filming locations. Reservations for private charters and guided trips are available in advance, and itineraries vary seasonally based on water levels and park access. Safety briefings and equipment are provided for all river and snorkeling trips. Booking information is available online.
