2-hour Shelling Boat Tour in the 10,000 Islands

Overview

The 10,000 Islands Wildlife Refuge, adjacent to Everglades National Park, is inaccessible except by boat. Our tour, led by an experienced sheller and certified master naturalist will whisk you to a remote barrier island within the Refuge. While barrier islands such as Sanibel or Captiva offer great shelling, these islands rarely have a foot print on the beaches.
Not only can you experience great shelling in a remote location, you will have the opportunity to see dolphin, possibly sea turtles or manatee, and a multitude of birds such as ospreys, eagles, roseate spoonbills, pelicans and the like while cruising to your island.

While shelling, learn about the nuances of tides and currents and how it affects sea life. Your captain/guide can make your tour a family learning experience.

We had a great day on the Eco tour and shelling. Captain Chris is knows the area and is super friendly. He brought us to 2 beautiful beaches for shelling and swimming. This area is just so beautiful. We had a 4 year old with us and she loved it all. It was such a great day and I would recommend this tour to anyone!

Sorry that you had a headache. All our guides are very experienced and appreciate their "outside" office...particularly in today's climate.

Thoroughly enjoyed the trip - Ed was brilliant, very informative and helpful. Hope to go again on another occasion. Plenty of fun with dolphins and lots of good shelling. Thoroughly recommended.
