About Sea Serpent Tours
Sea Serpent Tours brings the wild, freshwater side of Florida to St. Augustine, running narrated airboat adventures along the tributaries of the St. Johns River from its base at 6550 State Road 13. While most of the region's operators focus on the coastal salt marsh, Sea Serpent heads inland to the cypress-lined creeks and open river flats where alligators, ospreys, turtles, and wading birds thrive — a markedly different ecosystem just a short drive from the historic district.
The fleet is built for variety. Larger vessels named the Sea Dragon and Fire Dragon carry up to fifteen passengers on shared freshwater tours, while the six-passenger Sea Serpent handles private outings, and a separate saltwater marsh tour operates out of nearby Jacksonville. Every trip is fully narrated by guides who know the waterways intimately, turning the high-speed thrill of an airboat ride into an genuinely educational eco-tour. For visitors who want to captain their own day, the company also rents pontoon boats in a range of sizes.
Billing itself as an outdoor family fun destination, Sea Serpent Tours appeals to thrill-seekers and nature lovers alike. The combination of airboat excitement, knowledgeable narration, and abundant wildlife makes it a standout choice for families, groups, and anyone curious to see the untamed freshwater landscapes that surround St. Augustine.
