-Our Story

Salty Water Tours started as a dream and turned into a reality. We started as a Private Customized boat tours.  We had turned away a lot of guests that had more than 6 guests.  We decided to purchase a bigger vessel to fill those needs.   With love of the sea and animals, we wanted to create an educational Eco-Friendly tour that can be shared with Friends and Family.  The beautiful pristine waters and beaches in the St. Petersburg area is captivating.  We wanted others to join us to take in unique beauty that this area has to offer.  Come join us for your custom escape.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”50px”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text]

Awesome Trip

This excursion was AMAZING!!! The Captain and his first mate, Emily, were both fantastic from beginning to end. We saw dolphins, and they knew exactly where they would be and even had names for them. We also got to see a Manatee!!! From boating to shelling, snorkeling and spotting, this trip was first class all the way!!! Thank you, El Capiton and Emily!!! You made our day! And thanks for the coozie😉!

Capt Rob and Emily were personable.

Dolphin Tour & Visit Shell Key Preserve- Snorkel, Shell and Swim!

We booked this dolphin tour on our vacation to St Pete’s before we left home. . It was more than we were expecting. Capt Rob and Emily were personable and shared their knowledge about sea and bird life. We both enjoyed the experience. The stop at Shell Island was fun. You can can spot sand dollars walking the beach. We did see a few dolphins but that is a hit or miss. We were not disappointed. It was great day to be on and in the water.
