Amelia River Cruises Shrimping Eco Tour
- When: Thursday, July 2, 2026, 10:30 am - 12:00 pm
- Location: Amelia River Cruises & Charters: 1 N. Front St. Suite #3, Fernandina Beach, FL 32034
- Cost: Adults $40 | Children $30
Join us for this hands-on encounter where you will help us deploy an otter trawl net, retrieve it, then learn all about your catch in aquariums while our onboard marine biologist helps you identify your treasures.
Known as the “Birthplace of the Modern Shrimping Industry,” dive into the heritage of Fernandina Beach, and experience the operation of the “shrimp” net, just like the ones that were historically developed here to catch the tasty crustacean known as the Atlantic white shrimp or litopenaeus setiferus.
After we safely release our catch back into the wild, we will cruise the enchanting backwaters and tidal creeks that form this estuary as we look for the abundance of wildlife that calls this haven home.
