Great hosts for a day on the bay. - What a perfect combination of beautiful beaches and great hospitality. The tag team of Capt JD and Bubba were a lot of fun to be with as we learned about the area. Very laid back for all four of us.

Great day with a great crew - Captain JD and his deck hand were great company and very knowledgeable of the area. They were very hospitable, super relaxed and accommodating and made for a great afternoon on the water. They provided coolers, beach chairs and games and were willing to do anything we requested. Very reasonably priced and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a great day in St. Pete. I'll be back!

Best day on the water with St. Pete Beach Eco Tours! - Amazing day out on the water with Capt. Jeff and Bubba! They were accommodating and friendly - we instantly felt safe traveling the waters of the Gulf. They shared some knowledge and gave us options of things to do. Our 4-hours went SO fast - we visited Fort De Soto and Shell Key, sat on the beach, collected shells, played games, fishing off the boat and snorkeled. Likely the highlight of our trip! Great guys - will definitely book again next year! Thanks Jeff and Bubba!
