Super fun! Our guide Joe was awesome. Very knowledgeable, learned all about the Florida gulf ecosystem and wildlife while seeing dolphins, birds, and collecting some absolutely gorgeous sea shells. Definitely recommended.

Dolphins playing behind our boat was great. Manatees mating on the barrier island we were shelling on was something to see. The captain was knowledgeable. We would of love more time shelling.

We do offer a 3.5 Hour 10,000 Island Excursion.... With 3.5 hours versus 2, there is more time for everything.

Joe and Maddie were great tour guides. Both were very knowledgable and Maddie was helpful on the beach showing us different types of shells and conchs. We saw dolphins on the way to the beach which was cool. I'd highly recommend the tour. It was very relaxed and casual.
