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 Experience. Great Birthday Memories for my son’s Isaiah 9th birthday and my husband.Would definitely try it again if we had the opportunity. Capital Robin and I forgot the other Captain’s name but they were great for our first time. Would definitely go again in we had the opportunity. Money well spent. Christina Maria From: Illinois

Great trip and amazing little Island. **TIP** avoid large coolers. Dragging the cooler 1/2 mile in sand is no fun. Instead carry a small cooler or invest in a cooler backpack. The ferry has umbrellas and beach chairs to rent. Bring lotsa water or gatorade in the summer. *** NO BATHROOMS ON THE ISLAND ***. Pee in the ocean or drop a dookie in the bushes. Bring wipes. There is a "bathroom" on the ferry 1/2 the size of an airplane bathroom. ** lotsa MOSQUITOES. Bring OFF spray. ** LOTSA SUN-- bring sunblock lotion.
