Marco Island Shelling Excursion With Expert Guide

On our 4 Hour Kice Island Shelling Trip we depart from the Goodland Boat Park. Marco Island sits atop the 10,000 Islands. With so many amazing beaches just south of us, only accessible by boat, these islands are littered with amazing shells. Our expert captains and guides will teach you about each individual shell that you find. They will explain their habits, eating behaviors, and how they live in and out of the tides. Our crew doesn’t only know how to identify them, but they know where the best spots are. You will learn identification, and also learn about this unique ecosystem, and why these creatures are so important. Our shelling tour will provide you with the experience of shell combing and you will walk away with new knowledge about sea snails and bivalves.
