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

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.

Boat ride was smooth, music and crew were great. Island was beautiful. Love learning the history of Island.

When we first learned of this adventure a couple years ago, it was $20, now it's 40. Yeah, I know the price of gas has gone up. You can pay another $25 if you want to snorkel for 45 minutes, which we heard wasn't great. Hubbard Marina staff were awesome, our boat crew were ok. Waited 15 minutes to depart island for two people they had already taken back.....hmm. Would've thought they would've remembered to mark their name off the list. Lastly, I boat was fairly crowded and the 'seats' were uncomfortable for the length of the trip.

Our trip of 4 teen girls and 2 moms did the Egmont Key Ferry with add on snorkeling tour and all had a blast! The price was reasonable and the captain and co captain were knowledgeable and helpful. We all highly recommend this trip.
