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.

Brilliant trip! We got to see a handful of dolphins and a few played around the boat for quite awhile on the way back. We paid an extra $10 pp when we got onto the boat to go to snorkelling so stayed on the boat when others got off initially and they took us to some shallow waters nearby, saw a few larger fish and a shoal of small ones. The team on board were great, really engaging, fun and knowledgable. Would definitely recommend.

We had a fantastic day out. Egmont is a little limited due to works on repairing the beach but we saw tortoise, butterflies, and had a good dip in sea. Capt Zip was really good and we dolphins on the way out and back and also a huge shoal of rays..probably 200.

Hubbards marina is easy to find with lots of parking space. The trip we booked included parking so it we didn’t have to pay at the site. Area is litter free with picnic benches while you wait. The toilets are way over the other side of the car park so leave a little time to use them before you sail. Staff were friendly and answered all questions
