Water Adventures with St. Augustine Eco Tours

Located along Florida’s storied northeast coast, St. Augustine is a city where history and nature meet on the water’s edge. St. Augustine Eco Tours offers a range of immersive kayak, sailing, and boat tours that capture the region’s dynamic waterways and coastal ecosystems. From paddling silent salt marshes to sailing under open skies, their trips provide genuine insights into the diverse habitats around this historic city.

St. Augustine’s unique landscape centers on its extensive salt marshes, estuaries, and barrier islands—critical ecosystems that nurture fish, birds, and marine life. St. Augustine Eco Tours leverages these natural corridors to create adventures that are both educational and invigorating. Their salt marsh kayak tours offer close encounters with wading birds and thorough views of mangrove-lined channels, while backcountry kayak trips challenge paddlers to navigate less-trafficked areas where the ecosystem’s complexity rises.

Beyond the paddling, their boat and sailing excursions offer a fresh perspective on St. Augustine’s historic waterfront, including chances to recognize native wildlife like manatees and dolphins. For those celebrating meaningful life moments, their ‘‘Watery Weddings & Proposals’’ craft intimate experiences on the water, marrying nature with personal milestones.

The company’s approach emphasizes sustainability and respect for the fragile environment, ensuring guests get a meaningful connection to this region’s outdoor resources. Private guided tours combine local ecological knowledge with hands-on adventure—whether through photography-focused journeys or team-building exercises on the water, every trip is designed to deepen appreciation for Florida’s coastal environment.

By choosing St. Augustine Eco Tours, visitors go beyond the standard tourist circuit to engage actively with the environment that defines this historic city’s coast. These trips stand out in Florida’s outdoor scene because of their habitat-specific itineraries and commitment to low-impact, educational experiences that reveal the quieter, wild side of St. Augustine’s waterways.
