Wonderful socially-distanced activity for our trip to Amelia Island with our two young children! We rented two tandem kayaks for two tours - the Eco tour and the Marsh tour. Both were fantastic experiences. Lots of nature, wildlife, fun. Louis was a terrific guide and very knowledgeable about all the plants and animals we encountered.

Did our very first kayaking tour in Amelia Island/Jacksonville. Kerry was our tour guide, we opted for the 9:30am 2 hour tour. She greeted us with a mask and sanitized equipment which definitely was a huge plus to me. Of course you don't need to wear the mask while paddling since there's a good amount of distance. She had great fun facts about wildlife and nature, very friendly and personable. We never felt awkward or uncomfortable at all which I'm really thankful for, customer service is a really important to me and she definitely had it down pat. Also don't underestimate her, her upper strength is admirable. I wouldn't want to be slapped by her hahahaha, as a person who box here and there I definitely got tired pretty easy compared to her šŸ˜…Ā  I highly recommend it especially in these times that you do want to go do something out of the house that is still safe, also it's a good workout

We were on the island for a short vacation and found Amelia Island Kayak tours. We did the Lofton Creek trip and had a wonderful time! Kerri took so many photos of us and gave us tons of history and information about the area, river and its wildlife. Would certainly do it again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a fun and relaxing thing to do while visiting Amelia Island!
