Dolphin Tours

St. Augustine, Florida

The bottlenose dolphin is a streamlined, intelligent resident of our local waters - the coastal areas around St. Augustine and St. Augustine Beach, Florida. Bottlenose dolphins live inshore and offshore in groups called pods.

We offer private charters for between two to six people with the sole purpose of seeing as many dolphins as we can in their natural environment.

These pods of dolphins can often be observed feeding, traveling and socializing inshore and offshore. Dolphins often ride the bow wake of boats underway, gliding effortlessly at speeds approaching 20 mph. Echolocation allows the dolphins to zero in on their prey of choice. Master opportunists, dolphins are always present behind working shrimp trawlers to gobble up the discarded fish bycatch and escaping shrimp.

A dolphin can consume up to 20 pounds of fish and crustacea daily. Federal law prohibits feeding or otherwise interfering with wild dolphins.

What Can We Expect?

Our excursions typically provide a close look at dolphins in their natural environment feeding, resting or socializing. Offshore we may also encounter sea turtles, pelicans, seagulls or manta rays. There is no guarantee that we will see dolphins, but our success rate is above 90%.
