Salt River Kayaking & SUP Adventures with Sea Thru Kayaks VI

Salt River, perched on the northern shore of St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands, offers a coastal playground where water meets rich natural and cultural history. Sea Thru Kayaks VI LLC brings this unique setting to life through immersive kayak and stand-up paddleboard (SUP) tours, rentals, and moonlight excursions. Their fleet features everything from sit-on-top ocean kayaks to stunning glass-bottom kayaks, designed to reveal underwater splendor without ever getting wet.

The standout adventure here is the Bioluminescent Bay tours, where paddlers glide quietly on waters that come alive with glowing microorganisms. This rare phenomenon occurs naturally in select places globally, and Salt River’s dark, sheltered coves make it a prime location for experiencing this natural light show. The moonlit LED tours add a futuristic twist, casting colorful illumination across the water, ideal for nighttime paddlers wanting a surreal aquatic journey.

Sea Thru Kayaks VI also offers coastal and National Park kayak tours that navigate Salt River Bay’s marine reserves, where limestone karst formations and seagrass beds shelter a diverse ecosystem of fish, turtles, and manatees. The Salt River Bay SUP tours offer a balance of exercise and sightseeing for beginners and seasoned paddlers alike, with peaceful paddling routes through calm bays and occasional windward stretches challenging your balance.

The company’s Sea Thru paddleboards and glass-bottom kayaks afford an unparalleled connection with marine life below, making these tours particularly popular for families and photographers. St. Croix’s fusion of Caribbean sea breezes, historical sites like colonial plantation ruins nearby, and vibrant coral reefs make Sea Thru Kayaks VI a must-stop for any outdoor adventurer seeking both tranquility and thrill on the island. Whether you’re chasing the glow of bioluminescence or simply soaking in tropical seascapes, these experiences offer a distinct way to engage with the Virgin Islands’ coastal wilderness.
