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.

Easy phone booking and welcome reception Comfortable 2 man kayak. Easy and helpful info for beginners. No problem to store bags and valuables on the kayak. Tip to have coffee 1 mile before arriving turn off right to Island Grill and Raw Bar Restaurant. Delightful 2 1/2 hours varied guided humour filled kayaking with 1/2 hour beach break. Highly recommend. Doug the ideal guide.
