Located in the town of Marineland Marina on Tolstoy Lane just south of Saint Augustine, Ripple Effect Ecotours is an outdoor adventure company that offers guided boat, fishing, and kayak tours. The tours take place along Florida’s coastal waterways where visitors can see birds, dolphins, manatees, salt marshes, and much more.

Guests have two choices for the guided kayak tours: the 77,000-acre Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve or Islamorada with its clear warm waters. Guides are all highly experienced professional naturalists. “Ripple Effect 1” is the jet boat that serves as an outdoor classroom in which visitors learn about wildlife and ecotourism during the boat tour.
