Goodland Dolphin and Shelling Boat Tour 3.5 hr

Set out from Goodland for a 3.5-hour boat excursion through the 10,000 Islands, where wildlife sightings and shell-strewn shores make every trip its own adventure. A Florida Master Naturalist guide leads the way, sharing insights about individual shells and the birds and other wildlife you may encounter.

Cruise aboard a large, stable boat, with plenty of opportunities to take photos. Then explore an uninhabited barrier island and look for shells on a beach that is not picked over daily by crowds. The route and experience can vary from day to day, so talk with your guide about the possibilities. This hands-on outing is designed for visitors of all ages and fitness levels. Tours depart from Goodland at 8:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.; advance reservations are required. From June through October, morning departures are suggested due to weather. Arrive early to park and use the restroom, then meet your captain at the covered picnic pavilion by the marina office.

Book your Goodland dolphin and shelling boat tour and bring a camera for the island, wildlife, and discoveries along the way.
