Guided Salt Marsh Kayak Tour
Overview
Join us for one of the top rated kayak experiences in the USA! This 2-hour guided kayak adventure combines awesome wildlife in fertile marshes with pristine views of the Spanish Fort, ancient city architecture, the great cross and Bridge of Lions.
We are the original kayak outfitter in operation for over 20 years from our permanent location in the heart of Historic Downtown at St. Augustine Municipal Marina. What better spot to experience the water in the way people did centuries ago. We have a dedicated slip at the city marina where a specialized kayak dock makes getting in and out of the kayaks the easiest part of the trip. Extremely stable tandem kayaks with rudders make steering a breeze for beginners or the more experienced paddler.
When considering a kayak experience in coastal waters, choose an operator that puts the safety & experience of your family first. Professional Guides/Marine Naturalists & a permanent legitimate launching location.
