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.

We are locals but I had never been to Egmont Key. Definitely worth it! Our Captain Zip provided historical information and was very knowledgeable about local wildlife. I would definitely go during the week if possible and avoid the crowds on the weekends.

We had so much fun at Egmont Key. It was the perfect amount of time on the island to explore and relax. If you want to snorkel, I suggest going on the excursion (which we did not do but will definitely be doing next time) because there wasn’t much snorkeling on the island but we saw manatees, found shark teeth, and saw dolphins on the boat ride back! It was well worth it. I recommend getting there 30 min early. we planned to be there 15 min early and we were still cutting it close because of the line to get into fort desoto.
