Cumberland Island Nature Tour on August 22, 2026 • 5 adults

We appreciate Keith for his knowledge and concern for us. We celebrated my wife, released her ashes offshore, saw the beautiful Cumberland Island horses, and a huge pod of dolphin playing behind the shrimp boat which was dragging it's nets.

I was born and raised on Amelia Island, where I grew up fishing and shrimping alongside my dad, great uncle, grandfather, and great-grandfather. Since 1992, I've had the privilege of ferrying guests to the Greyfield Inn and landowners of Cumberland Island, as well as guiding families and small groups on fishing charters for over 30 years. Sharing the beauty, history, and charm of our area with new locals and visitors is something I truly enjoy. Whether it's a day of fishing, exploring the waterways, or learning about the rich history of Amelia Island and its surroundings, I'm passionate about creating memorable experiences for everyone who comes aboard.
