5.00Katrina and Kevin our Captain did a wonderful job showing off the wildlife both in the air and in the water. We appreciated Kevin's detailed knowledge of the area, and Katrina gave us some wonderful ideas about other places to visit in St. Augustine. We would definitely do this or another cruise with them again! It made my wife's birthday a special occasion we will remember for a long time! Thanks, all!!
Loved it!

5.00This was a very relaxing cruise with my daughter, but always remember, wildlife sightings are not ever guaranteed. We saw dolphins and several birds, but no manatees or sea turtles. This may be due to the time of year. Captain Steve and 1st mate Katrina were great and very informative in history of St. Augustine, wildlife to see, and referrals for placea to visit and dine! Again this was a very relaxing and peaceful cruise o along the intercoastal river wayerway.
A very nice time with some history, good music and a very pleasant day
