Small Group Kayak Tour of the Shell Key Preserve

Overview

Join Coastal Kayak Charters for a small group guided kayak tour of the Shell Key Preserve. We are St Pete's top rated kayak tour company and focus exclusively on small groups and private tours. Our trips offer more personalized service and better wildlife viewing opportunities while out on the water. We will explore hidden mangrove tunnels (tides permitting), shallow seagrass meadows, and stop on Shell Island for time to swim, look for shells, or just relax and enjoy the beach. Our tours are designed for beginners and experienced kayakers alike. We use stable user friendly kayaks that provide a great paddling experience. We primarily use double kayaks unless you have an odd number in your group. If you prefer single kayaks they are available through our website. Come explore with local professionals who love what they do and see the difference for yourself.

Our tour guide was very laid back and easy going and set the tone for a relaxing and enjoyable trip. He was also very knowledgeable about wildlife and pointed things out at every opportunity. Would book again and not look at another company. Great experience! I was with my dad in his 60s and my two teens.

Coastal Kayak charters was a wonderful experience. Although it was a bit early for manatees, we did see dolphins and a large range of sea creatures and birds. Paddling through the mangrove tunnels was incredible. The 45 min stop on shell key was really nice for exploring, finding beautiful shells and taking a swim break in the waves. Our tour guide Brian was wonderful and extremely knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife. Highly recommended.
