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!

The best time you can have in a 3 hour excursion. We loved the island and toured every inch of it. The ride to and from the island was so enjoyable. The Crew are professional and very fun. The music was awesome. The best part of the whole trip for me was the dolphin sighting we enjoyed on the way back. The captain even stayed in that area for 10 minutes while we watched at least 8 dolphins frolic and jump in the water. One of them was a baby. It was spectacular. We went on May 23 2022 at the 11 am ride.

Robin and Zip were super friendly and knowledgeable! I traveled with my mom, 2 year old and 5 year old while 7 months pregnant. Bring lots of water, snacks and good shoes. We saw 12 gopher turtles! Walked for miles, then cooled off with a swim and picnic on the beach. Great excursion!

Guides were friendly and knowledgeable, they stopped and pointed out manatees, dolphins, sharks & rays while allowing for plenty of photos. Never rushed and made kids got involved. Great all around experience.
