Riding the Craigcat boats with Kyle as our guide was not only informational but also made for a fun and memorable experience. We saw gators, dolphins, eagles, wild horses, and pelicans.
CraigCats are like a go-cart on water. You get the opportunity to drive your own boat on a guided tour while also getting to see the waterways of Amelia Island and the surrounding area. You could see dolphins, manatees, wild horses and birds specific to the area. *please note conditions vary and you may get splashed with bumpy conditions **you must be 18 years old to drive and if born after Jan 1, 1988 you must complete the FL Boaters Safety. ***Meeting location: 251 Creekside Drive Fernandina Beach, FL 32034 (C Dock)

We were so excited and looking forward to our CraigCat trip and we made memories, but not all the best kind! The weather did not cooperate (which is not the fault of anyone for sure). Our trip was moved up one day earlier than we had scheduled, but the wind and waves were still very significant and made things uncomfortable. The scheduler was very helpful when she asked if we could move a day earlier, and our guide, Captain Bill, was over the top informative, cheerful and helpful. He told us we would get wet, but wet feels different when the salt water is splashing over your head, into your eyes, and you are shivering by the time the tour is over. After riding through the whitecaps in the river for 15 minutes, our entire group was wishing Riptide had cancelled our trip as well. We were able to go into calm creek for about 45 minutes which was a nice respite from the constant waves and did give us time to warm up a bit, and that was the most enjoyable part of the trip. Captain Bill also found us a spot to show us a beautiful sunset, but we were more than ready to get back to the car and get warmed up. In retrospect, I wish the scheduler would have cancelled our trip or could have explained what the trip might be like if we went on a windy day. That being said, I guess you can never fully forecast the weather and how it will affect you!

Great time, fun boats, the water was rough because of winds but still very fun, and Zack was a great guide
