Half-Day Private Scallop Harvesting Snorkel Excursion

Half-Day Private Scallop Harvesting Snorkel Excursion

Overview

A Florida-style underwater Easter egg hunt!!

From July 1st - September 24th, Bay Scallops are the name of the game when it comes to the ultimate in family fun! Found in the shallow water grass beds of the Gulf of Mexico, these delicacies from the sea are the ultimate in harvest to table experiences. Like Discover Crystal River says, "It’s a fun family-friendly underwater adventure; all you need is a mask, snorkel, flippers, and one exceptional charter captain" that's where we come in!

After a scenic 40-minute cruise to the scallop grounds, you'll don your masks, fins, and snorkels and grab a catch bag. (All provided in the cost of the charter.) Our in-water guide will get you started by pointing out these tasty morsels. Then it's off to the races snorkeling to collect your treasure.

Once you’re back, you can even bring your catch to a local restaurant that will cook it for you. It’s a cherished local tradition and a Florida family favorite.

Captain Mac and Sara were great. They interacted well with my family. Very knowledgeable about scalloping spots. Took us to a small spring on our way back to the dock. We would definitely go on a tour with them again. Captain Kim was fabulous too with the safety briefing, what to expect , and what to look for to catch scallops.
