A Perfect Way To See Shell Key

Amazing! We saw manatee and dolphins. Shell Key was beautiful. John and Jen were so good about pointing things out and stopping for us to view the wildlife. The excursion was well planned and we had plenty of time.

John and Jen were great tour operators. We spent enough time on the island to acquire shells and enjoy the scenery. We had a great time!

Great boat trip!

Our family had a great time on our trip. The guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. We saw several pairs of dolphins. It seemed that maybe the weather had impacted where we anchored for shelling, we were hoping to find more shells other than the more common “clam” shells. It was a delightful experience and I would recommend this tour company.
