Description
This is a one-of-a-kind experience riding an electric skateboard on Amelia Island. Not only do you get a chance to visit our beautiful beaches, but you get to do it all while riding the island in style. We occasionally stop mid ride to find shark teeth near the jetties. We'll finish your experience cruising on the beach while everyone watches. Included in your tour at no additional cost will be 4K pictures and videos taken via Gopro by your tour guide. This allows you to fully enjoy the experience while we capture the moments for you.

10/10!
We had so much fun as a family on our beach ride! Hugh was an awesome guide and made our experience the best. We've been wanting to do this for years when we visit the island and now we'll be doing this every time we visit! The company was also really easy to reschedule with with there was bad weather when we first planned to go. 10/10.

Cancelled but coming back
We didn’t get to go on our trip because the owner had a family emergency and had to cancel. Super bummed about it. He sent the refund and then a gift certificate for a FREE ride. Well done, excellent customer service.

Simply The BEST!
What a blast!! Hugh made the experience so much fun and his instructions and personality were next level! Simply an amazing family experience surfing the sands of Amelia Island!! Our 11 year old did great and wants to go back!!! Found a jelly fish to boot!! ;)))
Operator response
Thank you so much! We had a blast with your family—your 11-year-old crushed it! Glad you enjoyed the ride (and the jellyfish sighting 😄). Come back and see us anytime!

Skateboards on the beach = very fun!
We had such a fun time with Hugh and Amelia Island Board Rentals! It was the perfect activity for us on a chilly but sunny Friday afternoon. We did a 30 minute ride and the boards were very easily managed by my three boys (11, 9, 7) and my dad (66). They all said it was the highlight of their day! We would definitely ride again!
Operator response
Thank you so much! I’m glad everyone had a great time—ya’ll were an awesome crew! Happy to hear it was the highlight of the day. Hope to see you all again soon!

Fun but misleading description of the activity
This is a unique activity that we enjoyed. Just know that you only travel along a very small section of the beach back and forth and do not "cruise North Beach park toward a Fort Clinch where we’ll see Cumberland Island Georgia" as the site states.
Operator response
Hey Jeff, we haven’t ridden North Beach for a few years. This experience takes place from American Beach. I’m sure some our previous reviews mention that we pass Forth Clinch and see Cumberland Island but that hasn’t taken place for at least 2 years. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the electric skateboard beach ride.

Our 8 and 10 year old grandchildren came for a visit and we wanted to do something special for them. This was the highlight of their trip. Logan was so patient and showed them how to balance on the skateboards and lean a certain way to turn in the direction they needed to go. He made it so much for them, adding in a race at the end. It was like a real live Mario Cart!!! Next time they come for a visit, we are planning an even longer skateboard adventure. I would highly recommend this.
