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.

Absolutely perfect. The ride was fun and they give you plenty of time to explore the key and go swimming. We even saw some dolphins on the way back!

Shoutout to Robyn & Captain Rob! Y’all were so helpful! I’m a single mom, planned a nice day out at the beach with my toddler and 11year old. They helped us on and off the ferry with our stroller and my baby girl. You guys really made our day. Thank you for the fun we will be back!

This was our second trip in as many weeks. We went to Egmont Key for birding, looking for warblers making their migration north. We got lucky and saw several different types plus…lots of gopher tortoises! The boat ride to/from was fun. We had Captain Robin on both trips. She was awesome! Very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful.
