Southern Airboat Charters and Tours offers sunset boat tours timed for golden hour. Our evening tours focus on the experience more than wildlife spotting. The pace is slower. The light is incredible. And the whole atmosphere changes as the sun goes down over the water.
We run sunset tours through St. Marks coastal waters and Lake Jackson and Wakulla River. The views are stunning and the wildlife behaves differently in the evening. Birds come back to roost. Fish jump as they feed before dark. Guests have spotted dolphins during sunset runs near St. Marks.
Sunset tours are priced by the hour starting at $60. Most guests book 60 to 90 minutes which gives plenty of time to find a good spot and watch the full sunset. Longer tours available if you want more time on the water.
We serve guests from Tallahassee FL and Thomasville GA and St. Marks and Apalachicola and Alligator Point. Sunset tours book up fast especially on weekends so plan ahead.
Classic Florida swamp tours focused on gators and birds and turtles and wild pigs. Great for first timers and families who want to see wildlife up close.
Explore North Florida ecosystems and learn about the wildlife and environment. Perfect for nature lovers who want to go deeper.
Time your adventure for golden hour and watch the sun go down over the water. Guests have spotted dolphins during sunset runs near St. Marks.
Book the whole boat for your group. Ideal for birthdays and family reunions and special charters. Custom Tours for what your group wants to experience.
Sunset tours depend on weather and visibility more than daytime tours. Clear skies give you classic orange and pink sunsets. Partly cloudy evenings can be even more dramatic with light breaking through the clouds. We monitor conditions and will suggest rescheduling if visibility is poor.
Photographers know golden hour is magic. The light gets soft and warm and everything looks better. Your photos will be stunning without any filters or editing. The water reflects the sky and the colors change every few minutes.
Evening brings out different activity. Birds fly back to their roosts in big groups. Fish jump as they feed before dark. Gators move into shallower water. Dolphins feed in the coastal areas around St. Marks.
Florida afternoons can be brutal especially in summer. Sunset tours start later when the heat breaks. The breeze on the water makes it comfortable. Much more enjoyable than sweating through a midday tour in July.
Sunset tours are popular with couples. The setting is naturally romantic without being over the top. Great for anniversaries and date nights and proposals. Some guests book sunset tours specifically for special moments.
Got questions about sunset boat tours with Southern Airboat Charters and Tours? Here are the answers to what guests ask us most.
Depends on the season. Sunset times change throughout the year. We schedule tours so you are on the water before the sun starts going down. We will tell you the exact time when you book.
Some clouds can make sunsets more dramatic. Total overcast with no color we might suggest rescheduling. Light clouds often give the best photos with sun breaking through.
Yes but different than daytime. Birds flying to roost. Fish jumping. Maybe dolphins near St. Marks. If your main goal is seeing lots of gators a daytime tour is better.
Most guests book 60 to 90 minutes. That gives time to cruise out and find a good viewing spot and watch the full sunset and head back in twilight.
Yes but they tend to be more popular with adults and couples. Kids who can appreciate scenery and sit still will enjoy it. Younger kids might prefer daytime tours with more wildlife action.
At least a week for weekends. Sunset tours are our most requested option and time slots are limited. Weekday sunset tours are easier to book on shorter notice.
