Florida Ecotour Guide Benjamin Brandao
Ready for a BioTour at Guana Lake.

Since 2017, Ben has built a full-time career as an ecotour guide, delivering unforgettable experiences for guests while also strengthening the paddlesports community. He has given hundreds of lessons, certified dozens of guides and trip leaders, and—together with River Wind Kayaking (certification calendar)—has led ACA Instructor Development Workshops for paddlers from around the world. 

As a certified American Canoe Association (ACA) Level 2 Coastal Kayak Instructor with a Trip Leader Endorsement and a member of the Safety Education Instructors Council since 2019, Ben is committed not just to safe and inspiring adventures but to building the next generation of leaders on the water.

Tours launch from sunrise to sunset.

Ben is a proud partner of the St. Johns County Visitors and Convention Bureau. His work has helped shine international attention on St. Augustine—the watersport capital of Northeast Florida—through discoveries like the region’s permanent bioluminescence display and the creation of the Dancing Dolphin Oyster Trail.

Hiring a guide is your lifeline. At the very least, be prepared and knowledgeable before renting kayaks on your own. Never take these inland coastal waters for granted—after all, the 5000 year old River of Dancing Dolphins wasn’t renamed the name ‘Bloody Massacre River’ by accident.

⚠️ Tide Advisory – Inland Coastal Harmonics

Go with the flow—at the right tide, with the right guide.

Paddlers, please be aware that inland coastal areas can experience harmonic tidal effects — currents that shift quickly, run stronger than expected, and may not align with nearby ocean tides. These conditions can be tricky and challenging, especially for less-experienced kayakers. Always check tide charts, plan your route carefully, and when in doubt, join a guided tour for safety.
