5A glorious day on the water and islands
A MUST if you love beachcombing! Unbelievable beaches and shells! Capt Evan is a cool guy that knows his craft! Our second trip! Lissa
5We had a great tour
Jamie, our captain, was friendly, professional, and knowledgable. On the way out to Kice island she explained the role of mangroves in the 10,000 islands. We saw several pods of dolphins feeding and many birds including blue heron and a spoonbill. On the island Jamie directed us to an area that was rich with fresh shells from the storm last night. We collected several bags.
5Fantastic shelling and Dolphins!
Best experience! Great captain, Paul S. And lots of shells and dolphin viewings! Captain Paul was wonderful. He made sure we had water and anything else we needed. He stayed with us and came ashore to walk with and keep us safe! Thank for accommodating a shelling trip on a one day notice. We were thrilled with all the shells we got and the Junonia!!
5Very Enjoyable
Captain Kerrick finds the Shells and the Dolphins!!! Great trip.
5Amazing shelling and dolphin tour
Captain Kerrick gave us lots of great info on Goodland, Marco Island and the whole of the ten thousand islands. We learned all about the local wildlife and sea life. We went out early and visted 2 islands just after low tide. We found all the shells we were looking for including lettered olives, welks, tulips, murax, angle wings, sun rays and so many fighting conchs. I even found a sharks eye shell. On the return trip back to the marina we had a small pod of dolphins ride in our wake. The whole experience was 10/10.
5Loved it!
This is the 2nd time we’ve gone with Jamie. We love her! We were able to find more than enough shells and got to play dolphins both times. We will be back!
