High Quality Early Kayak Tour - We had a great time on the water with Gary. Lucked into a private tour because no one else signed up in 8am slot. The weather was perfect and water was calm. This is our second excursion with Kayak St. Aug over the last few years and have had a great time on each one. Guides are friendly and accommodating to whatever you need.

Kayaking along the waterway of the oldest city in America ~ St. Augustine 2024 - Logan, our kayaking guide, was the best! Not only was he very knowledgeable about the history of St. Augustine, but he also took group family pics for us and gave us some amazing local restaurant recommendations. If your family enjoys kayaking, then I 100% recommend booking this tour. You won't regret it!
