EXPERIENCE:
With this two-hour Marco Island Sightseeing and Shelling Tours you will experience one of the most popular adventures we are known for. Departing from Goodland Boat Park just East of Marco Island, enjoy a cruise through the 10,000 Islands, made up entirely of mangrove trees. These islands are home to a large variety of beautiful birds. Keep your eyes peeled on the water as this area is home to resident dolphins, sea turtles, manatees, rays, and sharks. After you cruise through the islands you will stop on a private beach in search of the most exotic sea shells that the Gulf Coast is famous for. This is a semi-private or private tour. Boats are very kid friendly, with comfortable seating and a ladder for easy boarding.
The Gulf Coast of Florida has a lot to offer when it comes to hidden and not so hidden coastal treasure hunts. This guided boat tour will take you to a deserted beach where you will find beautiful shells that you will take home with you as a Marco Island souvenir. Among the most popular ones we can name the Banded Tulip, the Clam Shell, the Coquina Clam Shells, the Cowry Shell, the Florida Fighting Conch, the Lightning Whelk, the Lined Moon Snail Shell, the Murex Shell, the Oyster Shell, the Ribbed Cantharus Shell, the Scallop Shell, the Scotch Bonnet Shell, and the Turret Shell.
