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.

Peddle Through History

Our tours will have you step back in time to a place once forgotten. Discover the rich history of the 50-block historic district of Downtown Fernandina Beach and it’s modern-day shrimping industry characteristics. Uncover the truths and mysteries of the Isle of Eight Flags that date back to the 1500’s, the colorful tales, and local legends while exercising your way along this Riptide bike tour of Amelia Island.

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.

Captain Kyle was knowledgeable and a gracious host. He knows all the local wild life and points out things we didn't even know where there. His knowledge of which animals live where provided us with a beautiful trip that was full of local animals. He was fantastic in finding tucked away spots that where we could see more wildlife then we knew existed. He took input from us and sought out the unique sights and sounds.He was by far the best guide we ever had and showed us animals and sights we hadn't seen on other tours. He's highly rated by us and gave us a trip we'll always remember. He's the man you want to see for a local water tour and all it has to offer.

The Cat boat tour is a blast. There are sections where the water can be rough and you’re going to get wet. I think some others on our tour may not have known that. Got to see wild horses and a huge bald eagle. It’s was a great tour!

Fabulous customer service with a super last minute reservation. They were able to accommodate us within an hour and a half and provided a clean and reliable chair/umbrella rental for our family beach trip. Thank you so much for serving us well!

We had a group of 7 on the Craigcat boat tour and we had an amazing time. Kyle was our guide and he is so knowledgable of everything in the area. We were able to see a shark, dolphins, jelly fish, wild horses and even a rattlesnake. I would highly recommend this tour and will definitely go back the next time I’m in the area.
