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.

Captain Zeb and Captain Robin we’re great! The vessel was clean and roomy, and we had an awesome time in the key. Everyone from the check-in attendants to the Captains were very informative and made sure had all of the instructions needed for our trip. We will do this again since this time went so well! 😎

Cap Robyn and Cap Jason were FANTASTIC. The weather couldn’t be better. The ride over to Egmont was great. They both did a great job of explaining the scenery and making everybody feel welcome. We already recommended someone we met at our hotel to book with you all. We will be back. Thanks!

The crew was amazing, Zip and Robin were so friendly and welcoming, they made us feel so comfortable. They helped load heavy items for us without hesitation and had fun with the kids, playing music. It was a great ride and the island was gorgeous! Would have liked the trip to be a little longer because by time you get out there and walk the path to the beach and set up, you only have 3 hours on the beach and it flys by. We saw dolphins on the ride out there and back. Our ferry was sold out and it was pretty packed on the boat, especially with all the coolers, chairs, etc., there was barely enough room for everyone to sit, some people stood the whole ride bc they didn’t want to be on top of the next person. And half the boat isn’t shaded so it was hot if you were in the unshaded part. All in all we had a great time and would do it again!
