ABOUT US

Welcome to Rio Santos

We are a family-owned and operated eco-adventure company based in beautiful Hollywood Beach, Florida. Founded by husband-and-wife team, Rio Santos was born from a shared passion for the ocean, marine life, and the joy of connecting with people from all around the world. What started as a dream to share the natural beauty of our waters with others has grown into a heartfelt mission: to provide unforgettable experiences where travelers can explore, connect, and discover the magic that lies beneath the surface.

At Rio Santos, we are not a large, impersonal tour operator. We are a small family business, and every detail of your adventure reflects our care, dedication, and love for what we do. When you join us, you’re not just another guest; you’re part of our story.

We welcome you as friends, offering warm hospitality, personalized guidance, and the kind of genuine attention that only comes from a family-run experience. Our signature tour combines snorkeling, kayaking, and paddleboarding at one of South Florida’s most unique marine destinations. These reefs are a snorkeler’s paradise, filled with colorful fish, fascinating underwater sculptures, and the vibrant energy of a living ocean ecosystem.



What makes Rio Santos truly special is the heart we pour into every tour. This is more than a business for us. It’s our life, our passion, and our way of celebrating the ocean we love so deeply. Every day, we feel grateful to meet new people, to see smiles as guests encounter marine life for the first time, and to know that we are creating experiences that go far beyond a simple excursion. By choosing Rio Santos, you are supporting a local family business with a mission to share joy, adventure, and respect for our ocean. We invite you to join us in Hollywood Beach for an experience that blends exploration, fun, and a deep appreciation for the natural world. Come paddle, snorkel, and discover the reefs with us. We can’t wait to welcome you to the Salty Family.
