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.

Highly recommend! Our guide was so knowledgeable and patient. Everyone had a great time. We kayaked to the beach and got time to relax on the beach for about an hour and collect some shells then kayaked back.

Ross & Spencer gave great informative dialog about this environment, the ecology of the region, flora and fauna, as well as fun stories! Both bay and gulf kayaking plus a walk around Shell Key island. Fascinating mangrove islands and a tunnel on one island that we kayaked through! They were helpful getting us started and in/out of kayaks. A lovely 3 hour adventure, complete with Comoran birds that accompanied us, diving under the kayaks and swimming along side! Beautiful! Elena and Michael
