Egmont Key Ferry from Ft. DeSoto in Tierra Verde, FL

Overview

If you want to spend some time on a beautiful pristine island paradise, the ferry to Egmont Key State Park from Fort De Soto is a great choice for you and your family! Get ready for a day of fun in the sun with Hubbard’s Marina. The ferry ride to the island is about 25-30 minutes and offers great chances to spot dolphins, sea turtles, and sometimes even manatees! We often spot sea birds on the ride to and from Egmont Key Island aboard the Hubbard’s Ferry, our big blue boat.

Once on the island, Egmont Key offers great shelling, swimming, and opportunities for adventures. Including Fort Dade, a fort that dates back to the Spanish American war for to explore. Egmont Key is also home to a large population of endangered native gopher tortoises!

Be sure to pack like you’re spending the day at the beach! Bring sunscreen, towels, bathing suits, protective hats, shirts. Egmont Key is a pristine island so come prepared with a cooler full of water, food and drinks.

Great crew and beautiful key! Water was choppy but the captain handled the boat really well. They told us a lot about the history. We found SO many conch shells and several other types of shells I had never seen.

Captain Zip and Robin entertained us and relayed important history lessons about Egmont Key during our boat ride. On the island, we walked the cobblestone paths end to end, explored the structures, picnicked and walked the white sandy beaches. The 50 or so passengers we traveled with had the island mostly to ourselves the whole day since it is only accessible by boat. Worth the journey!
