Welcome to Kayak St Augustine.

Please call (see number below) or write to us ahead of time and reserve if possible.

 

We rent kayaks - and offer guided trips as well.  

If I can paddle this thing, you can paddle this thing.


We deliver to the St Augustine Waterfront (Hospital Creek, Matanzas River/ Intracoastal Waterway, Matanzas Bay - aka St Augustine Bay), Salt Run, Guana River  and other local creeks and rivers (delivery charge may apply if outside this area).

What better way to experience St. Augustine than from the viewpoint of the first voyagers - the water?

Paddle this historic area - pass the Fountain of Youth, the Spanish Mission Nombre de Dios and ease up to the coquina walls of Castillo de San Marcos (the Spanish fort started in 1672).

Your journey begins (one of many trips) on Hospital Creek  (click for map) and if you are an experienced paddler or with a guide you can venture to the Matanzas River (Intracoastal).  You may see dolphins, many birds, and at the right time of year - manatees.  From here you can paddle to Anastasia Island, Salt Run and the St. Augustine Lighthouse, Conch Island and even Porpoise Point (Vilano Beach) if you like.

For a narrative description please go here : Paddling the St. Augustine area.

For a look at the self-guided and guided trips we offer please click here or on "trips" in the index. 

Call us (ahead of time if possible) and we'll meet you, with kayaks,  at the launch - whether it be Hospital Creek, Salt Run, Moses Creek or another area.
