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.

Guide Doug was very knowledgeable about the area and the wildlife. He had great stories and information. Very good kayaking skills and gave us all good pointers for how to navigate better. Would definitely recommend and we would do tour again to shell island.

Had such a fun time. Doug was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable and personable. Got to hang out on an island and collect so many seashells. Our girls loved the birds that followed us in the water to eat all the fish stirred up by out paddles. Kayaked through the mangrove trees and it was incredible. Would definitely recommend!
