; 6 Cordova St; adult/child
$20/10)
Of the gamut of sightseeing tours in St Augustine, we prefer this new outfit, the brainchild
of a retired British couple, both former legal eagles: you're assured a fascinating and artic-
ulate insight into St Augustine's history. Private and small group tours are conducted in a
quiet electric vehicle that gets into places where the other tours can't.
St Augustine Eco Tours
KAYAKING, BOAT TOUR
adult/child $45/35; mid-morning & dusk)
This eco-outfitter has certified naturalists who take kayakers on 3-mile ecology trips. If
you don't feel like paddling, its 1½-hour boat tours explore the estuary and use hydro-
phones to search for bottlenose dolphins. A portion of profits goes to environmental organ-
izations.
