Bike Tours

Not all our adventures are on water. Our guided bike tours of Amelia Island will have you peddling your beach cruiser under Amelia’s canopy oak paths by Victorian-era homes, as well as historic downtown and other special spots. Kids & adults alike will enjoy the entertaining stories and “Amelia style charm” only a local can provide, and our guides do not disappoint! A fun way to spend an afternoon without getting wet.

The beach chairs and umbrellas made the days perfect! It was so nice to have them there every morning waiting for us and reserving our spot. Definitely a great service!

My family went on a boat tour- Captain Kyle was awesome! He was so knowledgeable and personable. We will def use this company - and request Cap Kyle- when we come back to Amelia Island next year.

We rented a pontoon boat this weekend and had the pleasure of a wonderful tour with Captain Zach. He was punctual, professional, incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife, a safe driver, and took us to interesting and beautiful locations I had not been to, even as a local who has lived here for 5 years. The boat was clean and comfortable, and they offered beverages. It was very reasonably priced. We would definitely rent with Riptide again. Overall an awesome experience. Thanks again Captain Zach!!!

We recently went on the Craigcat tour with Zach. He was an amazing guide with a ton of Knowledge. While we were going we were able to see several pods of dolphins. There were several baby dolphins as well. The weather was perfect. We stopped at Cumberland Island and were able to get in the water, take pictures, and see several wild horses. This tour is the best way to spend time on Amelia Island. Would recommend 10/10.

Outstanding customer service!!!! Excellent e-bikes, and amazing delivery!!!! My husband, teen son, and I rented E-bikes, and they were in excellent shape and so simple to use. They actually go a great speed, and they provided helmets, a lock and cover. Thank you! 🚲🚲🚲 👍👍

We rented two chairs and an umbrella on Fernandina beach right by the Sandbar restaurant. It was wonderful as it was close to parking and so relaxing to not have to set up a bunch of stuff on our own. Great service! They had everything set up by 9 am with our name on the chairs. Will definitely use them again when we visit!!!

Riptide staff was great- for starters they answer the phone. We are not experienced cyclists but enjoy riding bikes. The process was way easy as they dropped the bikes off and picked them up. We even asked to switch the one bike to a smaller one and they found us where we were in town and switched the bike. Friendly and helpful service. We will definitely use them again!

I had a couple of questions that were answered kindly and efficiently over the phone. Our chairs and umbrella showed up as promised all set up and ready for us. Chairs were comfortable, umbrella was sturdy. 100% worth the cost to not have to lug this stuff along with everything else for a day at the beach.

This was one of the most enjoyable and awesome experiences! I took my 13 year old daughter and she enjoyed it immensely. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the area and also passionate about the conservation of the area. He was top notch. We got to see dolphins and free roaming horses horses. The Island and the area was beautiful. I highly recommend this tour.
