St Augustine Sustainable Tours

Thanks for another wonderful tour! Steve was great. Knowledgeable and personable, made sure we got the most out of the trip. I just love this company and everything you all stand for.

Such a wonderful experience! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and it was awesome to see so much of the ecology of Florida! We saw so many wonderful animals, including dolphins! It was also awesome to go with a company so respectful of the animals, we hope to go again!

Captain Rich was awesome, very knowledgeable of the whole area, not just the river. Marina and ocean. We saw dolphins, we saw many bird variety, great positioning for pictures. We totally enjoyed the experience.

I had a great time on the dolphin and wildlife tour! The captain pointed out places of historical interest, and told us about the animals we saw on the tour, including birds, and manatees.

Our family had a wonderful 90 minute dolphin and nature tour with ECO Tours! Captain Rich was fabulous - he was knowledgeable about the history of St. Augustine, very professional and made certain that he met our expectations. The boat was very comfortable for all 11 on board and it was spotless! Beautiful day, numerous dolphin sightings and enjoyable along the marsh. It was a memorable experience for all - 70 year old grandparents, 40 year old daughter and 10 & 13 year old grand kids!

Lilly was great! Learned a lot and saw dolphins up close.

This was the best boat tour we’ve experienced in St Augustine. We covered a vast section of the coast. We saw many dolphin pods and wildlife. We loved this tour and will definitely do it again when we come back.

Best boat tour of St Augustine. Small group made it feel like a private tour. Better than the other dolphin boat tours we have taken in St Augustine. We sailed through different waterways and saw so many different dolphin pods and wildlife. It was awesome. We will definitely repeat this tour on our next visit.

Wow, what an experience for the kids. Captain Rich took wonderful care of us and got to see all sorts of animals. His knowledge of the local area and wildlife was extensive.

Nice. Informative. Great price. Time of day wasn't the best to see dolphins but we still managed to see 2 which was amazing. We went around lunch.

Guide very very knowledgeable and competent. Weather was wonderful

I booked the Sunset Boat trip for our anniversary. I wanted something different, quieter and more personal. I was delighted with our experience. Exploring the natural environment was very special. We saw the noisy, crowded boat tours and we were very pleased with our choice on Eco tours.

There were 5 of us guests plus the captain on this catamaran which was the perfect amount of people. It’s a bring your own snacks and use the bathroom before you sail kind of thing. Super chill, it’s a laid back cruise with a very knowledgeable dolphin research scientist as your guide, Captain Zach was great and we cruised all around the Matanzas Bay, Vilano Point, Salt Run, Cape Francis, and around Conch Island to the ocean side of Anastasia Island. Bring your curiosity because you can ask any questions and Captain Zach can answer. We learned about the migration of the dolphins between St Augustine and Jacksonville, this would be a perfect cruise with kids because they can sit on the trampoline front or he might even let you handle some lines if you have any sailing experience. Otherwise it’s a perfect spot to lay out, catch some rays, soak up the sun, wave at all the people stuck in traffic on the bridges. Any day on the water is a good day! It’s such a refreshing departure from the booze cruise party boat atmosphere. I was sad when it ended! I could’ve stayed out there all day. Saw dolphins too!

Fablulous. Lots of dolphins. Great birds.

I liked the small boat experience. We could get closer to the dolphins and birds. Lily was a very informative and humorous guide. 1 1/2 hours was just the right length for the trip. Most of the boat is covered from sun or rain, so that should not deter most trips. Very enjoyable!

We booked this boat ride not once but twice on the same trip! We couldn’t get enough. We had captain Zach on the first ride and he told us so much about the marine life and what he is doing to preserve and protect it here in Saint Augustine. He had so much incredible knowledge!! He was super nice, the boat was clean and very comfortable. The whole experience was overall great!! The next ride we went on was with captain Rich, he was just as nice!! He had a lot of information about the history on the city and it was very intriguing! The sunset was STUNNING!! I’d definitely recommend anyone to book this trip, you won’t be disappointed! Whether you’re visiting with family, friends, couples, it’s perfect for all!!Thank you eco tour for amazing hospitality and memories!
